Summary/Abstract: The author, in this article, looks into the reasons for disproportionate su­pport of intellectuals to socialist ideas, finding them predominantly in the inheri­ted thinking habits of hierarchical educational institutions, where one’s status and reward depend on the knowledge of general intellectual concepts. By con­trast, the reward on the market depends on the resourcefulness, entrepreneurial fo­re­sight, and often luck, all of which in the eyes of intellectuals creates a belief in the essential injustice of the free market system.
