BONUS: “The question is, are these elites living in a parallel universe all of their own, or are they at the leading edge of a changing world, converting more and more of us to their way of thinking and living?”
I know what most elites think the answer is, but considering the other quote, I wonder if that self-assessment is correct.
(via @ozskier)
Since it is elites who dominate the airwaves, influence culture and shape politics, it can be disquieting that they are so different in their choices in the workplace, leisure activities and childrearing than most Americans. And it is intriguing, from a marketing perspective, that the people with the most education are the ones who can be most easily “spun.”
