The Political Elite Has No Love For The Rest Of Us; It's An Ugly Contempt

Posen's words revealed more than he probably wanted to, like the elitist sentiment of wanting people with less education to have less power, or the way rich elites pander to Black Americans by mentioning them to shut down conversations about class disparities, or the ignorant and racist view that Black Americans don't work in manufacturing.

But maybe even worse than the social justice racism was that Posen admitted that manufacturing provides people without a college degree with good jobs, which in turn provide them with political power. And though his woke racism may prevent him from realizing it, bringing back manufacturing to the U.S. would provide jobs and business opportunities to every demographic—not just white males.
