I have a college degree. One of three out of 15 of us growing up to get a degree.

Always got along with blue collar alot more.

Lower middle class Italian neighborhood we grew up in.

You dont want to know how many of the blue collar guys are making just as much or more than me.

Liquor warehouse manager - 100k.

Police and firemen, now mostly retired were making some good money in NYC.

Sanitation paid descent.

Electrician and plumber both making a bundle..

I think more of their kids will go to college.

Not a liberal in the bunch. Not even a moderate in the bunch.

All married, all conservative with kids, nobody ended up being gay or transgender.

odd.

I also have a degree (Sociology LOL, lots of chickies / grin). Also referred to as a McNamara degree because of when I got it. College was a very different place in those days.

I know plenty with degrees that are ignorant. They are called liberals. Over educated with zero understanding of the real world.

I have an uncle that has multiple advanced degrees in the hard sciences. I badgered him in to admitting (somewhat) that Hillary is a liar and a criminal. He says she’s still better than a “radical Republican”. We are so screwed.
