Econom-dicks

I don't know very much about economics, but I think I can explain here, with a small anecdote, why my family and I generally support democrats.

In my freshman year of high school, I took an Earth Science class with my friend Dave. Now, Dave and I weren't big on science. We weren't really good at it, and we didn't like to spend a lot of time on it because it detracted from things we really cared about. However, before each test our teacher would give everyone in the class what you might call an "equal opportunity" to get extra points on the test, by playing a trivia game with us. Only problem was, it was Earth Science trivia. So now the people who were already going to get good grades got better grades, and Dave and I were just stuck in the middle, forever. She never did music trivia, or South Park Trivia, because those things aren't as important as Earth Science. Show me one person from that Earth Science class who can rock the Bohemian Rhapsody guitar solo as hard as I can, fucker. But it doesn't matter. If you can't do Earth Science, then you're not as smart as other people. There is only value in the things the most successful people in a society (or a high school science class) do. Why else would they be at the top?

Do you understand what I'm saying? Maybe a little?
