A defense of politics

·

Over the past few years, I have sensed a growing hostility toward politics by young would-be academics.

Gilded age

·

I want to be president. Not because I have a vision for this country, or because I believe in anything, but because the $400,000 annual paycheck would represent a roughly 4,000 percent raise. And you get to live in a swank house. And you get your own stationary.
