The Philosophy Discussion Forum

If Trump is the right choice, then why do smart people not like him? Clearly, the "smart" people must not be "smart people", right? Or is it "smart" to be against the right choice? Or is there no "right" choice, only us and them, and "smart people" are just the enemy? Now I'm confused again.

Now I know why philosophers have expressed much interest in the "liar's paradox".

Without mitigating devices, following could be a problem for the little people, especially in an elevator.
Big folks, no problemo, at least initially.

Mitigating financial instruments (devices) that yield an insulating income is one such device simpatico to the wellness climate of little followers, and biggins too.

A tax break is a financial instrument of sorts.

wind power … give it a tax break … and hope for wind.
