Well, duh. Look where they (we) got our learnin’. Government run schools. You want more edumacated childruns? Abolish public schooling and make people home school their children or pay for them to go to private schools.

Why are we rehashing something from 2016?

Because rehash is all https://revcom.us/en does except they change their strategies, their tactics.

Like that old demon rust, they never sleep.

The undeniable mark of a “progressive”: self-proclaimed moral and intellectual superiority.

Scientists as welfare bums—
You have a university degree in todays climate science. Which means a degree in global warming advocacy. Half science, half the art of propaganda. Where will you find a job, except in Federally funded, university climate research? Trump will be slashing such bogus research, so you might get kicked off the Federal welfare rolls.

10% of climate jobs are in the private sector. (my guess)
If you are a real, non-brainwashed climate scientist, then you can work for firms that predict weather and long range weather for farmers. Some of them use weather satellites. Timber, forestry products, owners of millions of acres of forests. Think Weyerhaeuser. They need weather and climate predictions. Same for private firms such as Conair, that has a fleet of airplanes that fight forest fires. Conair https://simpleflying.com/conair-aerial-firefighting-canada-guide/ gets contracts from US states and Canadian provinces.

It would be interesting to see what the average income is ‘inside the beltway’ of Washington D.C. I bet it is the highest in the country.

So, the highly educated in this country tend to vote stupidly - not exactly a ringing endorsement for higher education.

Having survived undergraduate and a masters degree without being brainwashed, I’ve always found this statistic a bit perplexing - but I think it makes a difference what your concentration was.

For example, majors in the hard technical sciences seem far less conducive to brainwashing than say, liberal arts, political science, journalism or social studies.

It’s convenient that pollsters never break it down that way to weed out all the bullshit majors - because, clearly, Democrat voters are not the smart ones.

This scrote thinks the masses voting is a bad thing overall. That we should let experts run everything and we should be like Singapore.

Oh, and no, he has never had a job in his life.

More proof that the propaganda universities teach, works. It is danferously effective. Be careful where you send your kids to be educated.

Singapore? A goodly share of his minions would be hanged for drug trafficking, wouldn't they?
