Make It Convoluted

The educated and the bureaucrats want to make things arcane and messy. Prager repeats that intellectual clarity if everything. Those that are rational individuators crave liberty over just about everything else.

They set up their lives along clean, practical lines, so that their ideals are made to be shaped by forces at work in the world. They modify and improvise to make the many interfaces between theory and reality alive. The applied theory must be able to be executed successfully. They live in the real world. They make money. They make art. They get things done. They philosophize. They state things in clear, simple language that capture the essence of what they seek to convey. They are idealistic and romantic, but the mechanical and utilitarian ground them.
