Santa-ism == cost-blindness.
Some groups—kids, leftists, and often some women—struggle to grasp "cost" or value.
They think resources just “exist”, ignoring the hard work behind them. This fuels entitlement: "You have $100, I have $0—give me $50, it’s fair!" But competence?
They can’t fathom it. Many shaped by societal roles, don’t see what it takes to excel in fields like medicine or law enforcement.
So they undervalue it, pushing DEI and affirmative action over merit. Result? Incompetence in critical roles, and a society crumbling after 60 years of prioritizing "nice" over "capable."
