#1 Goff is, perhaps all unconsciously, communicating an idea that Ivy grads preferably Ivy law school grads are the people who are entitled to power.

As the thousands of students who took on thousands of dollars of debt found out when they graduated.

#2 Thus illustrating a key political law (it has a name, I just don't know it):

"Those who advocate central planning always, always envision themselves as the central planners."

The Ivy League grads expect to become apparatchiks and, in time, full-fledged members of the nomenklatura. They would never advocate for a system that would leave them outside of the power structure. Capitalism, in which anyone can move themselves up, is way too chancy and therefore must be pushed aside.

#3 Ahhh, self esteem gone rabid. My brother the prosecutor has beaten in court EVERY 'Ivy League' Law School graduate (60+) he has ever faced in both criminal and civil litigation and has fired more than a few for laziness and incompetence. One actually appealed his termination on the grounds that he graduated from Harvard Law and was fired by a lesser law school graduate with predictable rsults. Harvard Law now works for the DoJ in DC!
