Excellent book that will blow you away.

My dad would not allow a cat near our home. He and mom both said that they'd always heard that you can catch 'bad' things from cats. They were both raised in farming families.
We always had dogs. If my dad were still alive, he'd be 100 this year. Click on my name to see my dogs.

"Now an assessment of almost 1300 US students has found
that those who had been exposed to the parasite were 1.7
times more likely to be majoring in business. In particular,
they were more likely to be focusing on management
and entrepreneurship than other business-related areas." Well if these parasites causes you to become a billionaire
and then win the presidency of the USA, I'll take two of them.

This looks to be junk science and little more than a fishing expedition. If anyone has access to the full text I'd appreciate a copy.
Seems to infer aggression => entrepreneur and wish to be entrepreneurs.

You can “link” cat ownership to all of those as well.

If President Trump has these parasites, I will believe in the findings.
However, as a guy with a MBA for 40 years, I never met a cat loving MBA guy or gal.
On the other hand, After discussing this with my wife, many if not most successful women business owners/founders, my wife and I know or have known are cat people. They seem to prefer the unfriendly aloof cats who only need humans to feed them or to rub their bellies or backs.

Given the disproportionate number of third world students enrolled in American university level business programs, this certainly stands to reason. American and European students are pursuing degrees in useless degrees in sociology, socialmedia, and ethnic and gender studies.
So seeing third world diseases occur more often amongst a population with higher numbers of third world students should surprise no one.
