For believers in free markets, small government and the primacy of
the entrepreneur over the State, there may yet be much to celebrate
about President Trump. But not for millennials, obviously. Their
perpetual tin ear turned to reality and what can only be described as
hysterical grief, in every sense of the word, is reason enough for the
rest of us to be quietly encouraged about the future. Educators – in
economics and history in particular – have a lot to answer for, having
perverted the mindset of a generation. As the US economist Thomas Sowell
once said,
“Socialism in general has a record of failure so blatant that only an intellectual could ignore or evade it.”
Say what you like about Donald Trump, but he isn’t a socialist.
