The left don't care, they are just selfish about guilt
Just reading Tim Worstall having a go at Melissa Benn's intellectual or moral ( it has to be one of them ) failure on free schools something occured to me that been nagging for a while.
The left are always on about how they care ( see Polly "bleeding heart - but not enough to sell my villa in Tuscany" Toynbee for an example). And yet it s very clear what they espouse doesn't work.
For those who didn't follow the intellectual defeat of the left, there are plenty of practical real world examples.
And yet still they go on ( and on and on - just see the Stalinist dinosaurs at the TUC today ).
I have come to the conclusion that many of those on the right really do care, enough to do the right thing.
On the left they just want to make their personal guilt feeling s go away (see the #LibDems ), and whatever fixes that personal need fastest is what they go with. ( Hence many of the public school educated aristocratic socialists ).
In reality with the left its all really selfish.
We mistake their protestations for an interest in other people when in reality they are just concerned about themselves and how they are feeling.
