      I've never understood the point of Howe's insult since unquestionably dentists do more social good than literary critics or editors of small magazines. I mean dentists fix teeth.

          Yeah but they're supposedly easy marks for con artists.

          A dentist uncle of the Coen bros. financed their first movie, so dentists are okay in my book.

          In 1964 in Suicide of the West, James Burnham argued dentists were more liberal than doctors. That's probably changed since then.pic.twitter.com/1yvqWDbYwJ

          That is exactly why they are beneath contempt, from an aristocratic point of view. The best people don’t live by providing social utility, but by natural right.
