Thread: Things that make ya go Hmmmmm

Very interesting. Makes we want to dig into who Freidrich Engles was. Amuses me a bit that according to that quote Engles was the "son" of a wealthy factory owner. It would be surprising to me if a wealthy factor owner himself bankrolled Marx....

"Intellectuals" defined as those who deal purely in ideas and social theories generally have a bad track record and largely a devastating effect on humanity through history. Intellectuals and Society by Thomas Sowell. Excellent book I would recommend to anyone.
