8. Bush on "The Bell Curve"

I have heard conjectures (not theories, but conjectures as theories of experimental and observed data which support them, not just phony other conjectures as "the Bell Curve" uses) like "the Bell Curve" for many years before it was published. I have heard many economic propositions like "Atlas Shrugged" before it was published. Both are total garbage and whose policies have a place in authoritarian class-based regimes (neo-fascist) but many, many Americans ascribe to this. Even Adam Smith, in "On The Wealth of Nations" in 1771 refuted these stupid propositions. With their rise in popularity and influence we may be on the verge of the decline of America into an abyss out of which we will never climb. According to Grisham's Law, "bad money drives good money out of circulation." Well, "Bad thinking drives good thinking out of circulation."
