A discussion in Amsterdam about income inequality, see here.
An economist said: "Even the lefties among us work hard, sometimes very hard, to get their children in the best schools."
Another economist said: "That's not hypocrisy. Your children deserve the best education.” I agree, but I'd like to add: it's often hard to distinguish between morality and hypocrisy.
So-called populism feeds on the emptiness of quite a few of our most cherished moral convictions.
