The Hidalgo Syndrome

I have been working on a theory regarding the connections between cognitive ability, sexual inadequacy, political sensibility, and government intervention to buy the votes of people who are not only unproductive but counterproductive. I call it "The Hidalgo Syndrome." No, not after the movie about a horse. "Hidalgo" identified the landless nobility—aristocrats in name only, without a hereditary title to property—on the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages. The "spare" of "an heir and a spare," if you will, and often the descendants of the "spares." The second and third sons—who inherited the attitude but not the title, land, and money.

I am going to weave in the sexuality and personality disorder issues in a future video, but part one of my evolving "Hidalgo Syndrome" hypothesis goes something like this—please see video
