There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.
People who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do.

Have a great Wednesday, folks.
Until next time…
