At first I thought this was a joke until I looked him up and found a serious piece on him in the NYT. He actually does support a law to protect ugly people. Amazingly he's very credentialed in the field of economics with an ivy league (Yale Phd) pedigree to boot. This guy has even published economic formula's for calculating economic damage from ugliness. You have to just laugh at the field of mainstream economics. What a bunch of witch Drs. The funny thing is that this comedian interviewer destroyed a life time of his work in about 30seconds of joking around. Let's send this guy to interview Krugman! LOL
A violent government gun-and-jail-backed wealth transfer from pretty people to ugly people...I want Paris Hilton's money! Oh, Please mommy-n-daddy government, steal her money for me since I am too cowardly (i'm cowardly because i'm ugly) to do it myself!
How is it that the same word is used to describe this sort of windmill tilting and the science of Menger and Mises?

ReplyDeleteTalking their book. Most economists are ugly.
ReplyDeleteThis entire premise is absurd.
ReplyDeleteWhy do so many have bias against people being, in any way, unequal?
Everyone should have equal protection before the law, but past that, there should be nothing like what this guy is talking about.
He's angling towards granting a special protected status to the ugly and the stupid. I guess he hopes to be the first in the line for handouts.
