Economical Sophism

Share definition Flag
The use of economic language, models, and theories to defend positions that serve wealth while appearing neutral. Economical Sophism invokes "efficiency" to justify inequality, "incentives" to defend exploitation, "growth" to excuse destruction. It's sophistry with spreadsheets: using the appearance of rigor to obscure the reality of power.
"Tax cuts for the rich will trickle down, they said—decades later, it never did. Economical Sophism: using economic theory as a promise, not a prediction. The sophistry is in the confidence: they spoke with certainty about what never happened."

The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
