In Reply to: oh good grief. Haven't we heard enuf of this? Educated people are just - PEOPLE, daggon it!

just because someone put more time, money and energy into their lives and has more potential for future success than someone who didn't that doesn't give people who are not educated the right to act like it's no big deal.

You didn't go to school, that's your problem. Don't try to belittle others who did put forth the effort.

Another example of someone trying to bring others down to their level because they're disappointed with their life choices.
