Any time I see the phrase "most any person of importance...will agree" as an argument for any point in any debate, I immediately know that the person advancing the point values importance more than truth. It is the language of exclusion and condescension, and tells me that if I disagree, I must not be important.
Too bad those important people aren't the ones paying the piper.
