Too bad I don't get to sit around and think all day so I can discuss with others who sit around and think all day.

That was Plato and Socrates's secret

Well, a society with a vast management/"thinker" class (the rest, including bureaucrats, being slaves) should produce some thinkening shit.

Not as much as a society with universal individual's needs guaranteed (the tech back then just wasn't there), but more than a society with overwhelming oligarchy/feudalism rule where only a random few are allowed to think.

Oh, that's where I messed up. I took the thickener, not the thinkener.
