but it's hard to make that argument without triggering SJW left...which is why he doesn't do it. The fundamental issue is the SJW left seems to see any change in the current regime toward a higher skills mix or any attempts at enforcement as racist...and that is the impasse. 3/3

Haidt was the first to tell me about the "threat sensitivity" theory, interestingly...in a taxicab in Tokyo.
