I'm talking about different segments within our society, or any society for that matter.

I don't mean to slight anyone, but among people who work at refineries and car factories, you find a higher percentage of "ruffians". That's just the nature of the beast. Anyone who denies that is either blind or lying. If someone doesn't want to deal with ruffians they best not be involved in that end of the oil or car business.

In some areas Doctors are union members. When they have a dispute they work slowly and take unauthorized sick days.

When refinery and auto workers have a dispute they slash your car tires.

That's just who you're dealing with -- it has nothing to do with the fact that they're members of a union.

In every society, there are people with high status and people with lower status. People with lower status get frustrated. Its not tough to imagine, or to understand.

I'm convinced that's why professional sports teams were created. It gives an outlet for their frustration and lost dreams.

Educational superiority overseas? Ha! I laugh at that. U of Texas or Southern Cal could beat any college football team in China or India. <G>
