ORIGINAL: Tantriqu Exactly! Imagine if George W. had to earn his degree rather than be a legacy, he would have failed, his brother couldn't have perverted the 2000 election, Gore would have really won as he numerically did, and the past decade would be just a baaaaaaad alternate reality. And Oprah, like Prince Charles [another legacy who couldn't pass his university board exams], lacks discernment and touts bad science as truth. If she earned some degrees and got some logic skills, she could have been president. Stay in school, kids! Maybe she doesnt want to be president. I bet she does not want that. School is for people who want schooling. To make a broad sweep and say everyone should go to school because that would mean they had better life skills is so not reality. The big picture holds for way more pieces of the pie to make the whole. I would bet there are some 'uneducated' folks are as smart, or even smarter than the smartest students. School is for folks who want to go down that road and not everyone does and this does not make them less of anything except school educated. People who only see it this way that you have to go to school to be someone suck, imo.
