It takes a lot of people to make a society work. the issue is people thinking they are ENTITLED to a university degree because they simply exist and ruining themselves forever financially because taking out large loans when you have no job possibilities awaiting is suicide what field(s) of study are your degrees in? accountants and lawyers are not including in fingerpainting degree fields. most farmers i know are engineers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conversely I have worked with attorneys who I had the utmost respect for. In retrospect, the lawyers that I didn't trust usually were working out of their field of expertise and tried to bs their way through the job at hand. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about and have experienced much of the same. No offense to you as I'm sure you are one of the good guys.

This is a lesson for the light-minded leftists who mocked the right with the whole "clown car" schtick when a bunch of GOP candidates were elbowing for the top spot. Be careful what you mock, as you will surely get it. You're about to go from the Democratic Party to the Donner Party. Someone make some popcorn and tell the fat lady she's on in five.
