What is really scary is that this probably doesn’t bother a single one of the people who would vote for him. Maybe they don’t believe a president needs to understand basic physics. Or maybe they think that public policy should not be made on the basis of scientific facts that they don’t understand.
Perhaps policy should be made based on their ideas. Their ideological ideas….. cue alternate universe music….
…I mean, after all, reality is what we think it should be, right? Indeed, it’s what we want it to be. Poor people are shiftless and want to be poor, so we don’t need to pay attention to them. They don’t vote, anyway. At least, not for the Mittenator. So who cares what science says about them. And who cares what science says about the economy and investing. I made my money. I did very well and I didn’t know nuthin’, so I don’t know what’s wrong with you. No. I do know. You picked the wrong parents. Yeah. But I made my money all by myself. It didn’t have nothing to do with my Daddy. No. It didn’t Vote for me! Mitt! The Romneyator!
