Why is society resistant to common sense?

I am offering today a link to an article written by Professor Amy Wax from the University of Pennsylvania Law School and was posted on the Imprimis website sponsored by Hillsdale College.

This article is a tremendous inspiration to me and further validates the dynamics in our society that have conspired to make common sense so uncommon. Please enjoy and offer your views regarding the plain realities expressed here to eloquently by Professor Wax.
