This Harvard professor and socialist idiot is one of the most influential "intellectuals" in American education, because of his theory of multiple intelligences.

Don't donate to your alma mater if that means subsidizing scum.

[kempster]

Does this mean we will be able to go to a ballgame for $1.50 again? Or to a movie for .25? I better quit while I’m ahead, I’m showing my age.

"If there’s a Republican administration after the next election, I would join in efforts for some sort of secession."

Don't let the door hit you on the way out, Howard. And take your fellow useful idiots with you.

If you want a laugh, click on the article and look at his picture. This Marxist nerd couldn’t change a light bulb, yet he’s “influential” to the left. I hope he gets lost on his way home and is never heard from again.

Better if we limit the income of liberal professors at liberal universities...that way they can understand the true effects of socialism

[JZelle]

Sounds like the tree of liberty needs watered.

"I would join in efforts for some sort of secession"

Probably the sort where you still get to steal the wealth of your betters, huh?

[Billthedrill]

It's sort of like seeing that really smart Electrical Engineering professor you know argue passionately in favor of phrenology - you don't have the heart to tell him he's an idiot, but he is.

Now, let's see - if that income between four and five million a year should represent some entrepreneur's share of a new startup and you tell him you're going to confiscate it if he makes it, what happens to the startup? Is "disincentive" in Dr. Gardner's vocabulary? How about "common sense"?

Howard Gardner: ban annual incomes above $4 million

How much money does a private university get to earn each year?

Harvard University's endowment earned a 16.7 percent return during the year ending June 30, 2006, bringing the endowment's overall value to $29.2 billion.

[LonePalm]

Wouldn't multiple intelligences also imply multiple stupidities?

He apparently has multiple intelligences as well, all with factors of zero.

Oh, brother. Just what year was it that our most prestigious institutes of higher learning finally finished circling down the drain?

If there’s a Republican administration after the next election, I would join in efforts for some sort of secession. It’s not the same country anymore.”

I, for one, am all for the idea of secession. Let the people who want to live in a welfare state all go to one region and let them have it. Then they have have their social utopia and let the rest of us go back to a nation founded on the actual constitution.

It's really our only hope of averting a civil war.

"It's just not the same country anymore."

When libs make idiotic statements like this, I wonder what they miss about the old America whose demise they are lamenting. Do they miss slavery? Jim Crow? Wars where we lose hundreds of thousands of American soldiers? Dropping atomic bombs? Rounding up Japanese-Americans into concentration camps? 60 hour work weeks? Do they want to bring back anti-sodomy legislation? Deny women the right to vote? Deny naturalization to non-whites? To what point in our idyllic, pre-Bush past do they want to return?

[Angry Citizen 2]

Why does anyone need more than 10 or 20 million dollar anyway?

One possibility is for corporations to issue two kinds of shares, control shares (which have little or no financial interest), and profit shares (which contain all the financial interest).

That way, people who’ve built big companies and want to retain control of them, without having to keep control of excess billions of dollars, can do so be retaining most or all of the control shares, while doing what they want with the profit shares, such as donating them to charities or foundations.

Harvard, eh? Supports my contention that MIT is the only school worth respecting in Boston. Harvard has become a joke (physics and math departments excepted, of course).

“The right wing isn’t just taking over the country, it’s shanghaiing all our values."

I suppose that's true, if grand theft is one of "our values."

I've said this before, and I'll say it again to this sort of person... "What right does the government have to money earned, well after the taxes were paid on it, and were paid on earnings gained from holding that property? The only 'right' the government would have on it would be through the assumption that all wealth and property actually belongs to the government, and that there's no right of personal property."

This sort of attitude disgusts me.
