Hi, Sam.

What you said about most intellectuals being complete idiots are reflected in a book by the economist Thomas Sowell known as Intellectuals and Society.

If you don’t know him, I would suggest you look him up.

I am currently reading his book called Basic Economics and its an amazing book.

If you do k ow him, just ignore this message 🙏🏽

I have a copy of Intellectual and Society, but I haven't read it yet. Looks like I should.
