Much as liberals like to say they’re all for open inquiry and the spread of knowledge, there is abundant evidence to suggest that they’re only interested in propagating the notions that shore up the crumbling edifice of statism.
One piece of such evidence is the campaign that a liberal pressure group has been waging against allowing judges to go to educational seminars where they learn some potentially relevant economic concepts. Most judges are wholly ignorant of basic economics and such seminars perform an important educational task.
