An intellectual bail out, anybody?

What’s really needed in today’s world? Some original thought. A new breed of philosopher. Where are the Nietzsche, Sartres or Gandhis of the 21st century? If they are out there and I haven’t heard of them, then they are not loud enough. We need a new philosophy to challenge and inspire us.
All the brains went to Harvard and economically destroyed the world. Nowadays, those at the helm of public opinion seem more intent on twittering than on thinking.
An ideological, intellectual bail out is the need of the hour. In fact, money is the last thing we need.
