The &...We have the best government money can buy. <br /><br />The "academics" are a truly sickening lot. Some universities have endowments in the BILLIONS, yet their tuition goes through the roof. Professors are expected to rake in the research bucks, as are students in the advanced degree programs. Meanwhile, the universities churn out brainwashed NUBs (Non-Useable Bodies, a Navy term) who can barely tie their shoes without a diagram. These NUBs expect (and often receive, when they can find a job) salaries equal to and beyond folks in the same job with years and even decades of hands on experience, all because they have their over-priced goddamn piece of paper.<br /><br />But that's the culture we've developed in this country, mostly because folks are afraid of honest work these days. The "American Dream" TM has been changed from working hard to make your own way, to purchasing "success" on the "easy payment plan". Just get that precious degree in basket weaving (or sociology, psychology, political "science", etc., all about as good as basket weaving) at enormous expense and all your dreams will come true.<br /><br />Welcome to the Ponzi scheme, suckers...Mayberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07664966137470121099noreply@blogger.com
