The problem is that the really stupid ones all think they’re geniuses. And the really smart ones don’t like to brag about it. Of course, that’s just what they tell me.

Well, when stupid students get the same grades as smart students in our skools, that what you get. When functional illiterates are welcomed into the best universities and handed unearned degrees, that's what you get. When total incompetents are praised and promoted on the job, that's what you get.

“The problem is that the really stupid ones all think they're geniuses.”

Funny thing, I heard just last night about a study in Great Britain that starting in the 1980s and continuing until today, that the IQ of those born in each decade has dropped approximately three points. In 40 years that is 12 points.
The group making the study theorize the drop is caused by increased technology.

I’d love to see his per hour wage. You get what you pay for is the key to great workers.

The “colleges” and “universities” should never have started handing out participation diplomas to the jugheads they need to push through for “the numbers”. It ruined it for those kids who go to college to learn.
