Vision of the Anointed

It is widely taken as axiomatic that ordinary people's lives lack meaning, which must be brought to them by the anointed via various political crusades or social activism. . . . 
In other words, the purpose of a tax-payer-supported institution is to express the ideologies of those who run it and to brainwash the visiting public with the vision of the anointed.

Thomas Sowell, "The Vision of the Anointed," p.20
