Guidry,,,

Education has now become a multi million dollar buisness. It does not have much to do with education more so then helping out fraternity way i see it.

Looks like all larger companies are hiring dereclty from former schools.

The corportation i work for does this every time they change vice presidents, they change the school they recruit from.

I do agree, hard work is not getting anyone anywhere anymore. It takes a degree...

Globablization has taken a toll. They should disincentivize shipping American jobs overseas.

ummmm...our classes are a little different than the rest of the world... our poor are rich in peru, just sayin. Also, there is nothing wrong being born into the middle class and being content with that. I grew up in a happy healthy family and enjoyed my middle class up bringing and im still middle class, maybe a little lower than my parents before me. Lower class poverty level parents dont put the effort in to educate their children and teach them..... so maybe 2% escape the trappings of the ignorant poverty class...... admit it dean, you must be one dumb muthafukr to be poor in this country and those dumb muthafukrs breed like rabbits..... its no wonder our stats are what they are..... we are 21 and 27 in science and math.... whos fault is that? I bet if our poor were really poor and had to struggle to feed and house themselves, you would see more movement out of the lower class...... but when you get all your necessities from the guvment, why put fourth an effort to take care of yourself? Dont feed the wildlife, they may become dependant....... humans are no different than bears or any other animal.....we will always take the path of least resistance if possible..... we reward the unproductive and punish and take from the productive......Im tired of being dragged down to pay for someone who wont take care of themselves..... not cant, but wont......fuckin leaches..... do you let a leach suck your blood if one gets on you? hell no you dont, then why do you think we should be allowing the leaches in this country to suck us dry? legalize drugs and allow for people to self cull themselves, Id even pay more in taxes to give free drugs to those that want them to speed up the culling process. food stamps should be ended and bags of rice, beans, some lard and flour and sugar should be what you get monthly..... no processed packaged foods. guvment housing just stacks these ignorant poor on top of each other and then you have a mob of idiot leaches.....something has to change... also govment housing should only be available in cities that need workers..... that means the poor leaches have to move to where workers are needed...... end the excuses for the poor.... make them work.... cut the medians along the highways with a pair of scissors to get any govment aid.....I will wager most would not be signing up because they are too lazy.... they would rather starve than work.... so let them....ok my rant is over for now, its been building for a while and this was a good place to bust that nut.

I bet that the dumb lazy leaches even know not to leave the key in their ride...cuz if the shit ain't bolted down or locked, somebody's gonna steal it.

Very Good post

So,
