But anyway, it's not a just a question of economic value, it's a question of the values we want to encourage in our culture. Elitism, snobbery, automatic privilege by birth and dubious genetics doesn't seem to feature on any list of positive social influences I've ever encountered, and would seem to counter any political dogma of the last 50 years, but then I'm poor, and not in-bred, so who gives a fuck, innit.
