YOu are doing it now. Calling me condesending. Saying WORK is much more important than schooling and university. The words of the great thinkers can't earn a dime huh?. How many great thinkers are you going to meet at work. The great thinkers of the ages are the people we learn from!

Without eduation we cannot cure cancer and we cannot build sophisticated social systems.

It wasn't the farm folks who wrote the consitution fo the US, it was the inteligensia of the day: Jefferson, Franklim, Hamilton, Adams!

We worked for thousand of years and never learned a damn thing. In fact they called it the dark ages. It was knowledge and science that pulled us out of the dark ages.

We need to nail this anti intellectual nonsense in the bud right now.

Kids all need as much schooling as we an give them. All kids. Everyone.
