Educated voters breaking hard against GOP

One fun fact a sociology professor average salary is 73 k.
WSS
I had a sociology professor at WVU (Dr. Starr, has since retired) who we didn't study for his tests because if you just remembered the basic idea that white, old, rich, American, and Christian were evil, you could get an A. All of the questions were worded in a manner that if you kept a mindset like that you would pass. The same professor would get too hot in our class and staged a protest out front with students to force them to turn the AC down. I used the time to go get day drunk and be around people I didn't loath.

Sounds like a terrible teacher.

Lol steve what???
Any data to back yo these anti education claims?
Calm yourself Woodrow. Deny already State I don't have the numbers? Just a guess. If you think otherwise I'm happy to hear your arguments as well.
But you should be able to at least grassed my point. Doctor of Sociology making 73k would naturally be jealous of the garbage man with a high school diploma making a buck and a quarter.

Furthermore I think one of the largest classes of people with Advanced degrees are School teachers most of which I think are lucky to have their cake jobs. Jobs that just about anybody who can read and write could do if they have a little bit of aptitude.
Have before you explode yes I think your degree is harder to get and more necessary to success in your field.

That is a lot feeling you are posting. Do you have any actual evidence that this is the case? Your complete lack of respect for teachers is noted.

I wouldn't say a complete lack of respect but certainly a minor level across the board. Are there exceptions to every rule? Sure.
Of course any job that could be reasonably easily replaced is probably not meant to be on a very high pedestal.

But I agree with you. If a 15 year ago kid in China can do your job, you deserve to lose it. If a uneducated immigrant standing outside of home depot can fix the same thing you charge 60$ an hour to fix. Your job is "high pedestal".

Steve the "anti education" bias from you is too strong. Bordering on some kind of resentment.
The teacher bashing is just the cherry on top. Jesus
You say "well I guess there are exceptions to every rule" while simultaneously acting like an exception is a rule.
You're just spouting off claims with 0 data to back it up and then acting like we need to prove you wrong. I mean I get that's 90% of this board but come on. Have some level of common sense.

Probably true considering that they over-educated are often less successful.
Ur so right. All these fortune 500 ceo's are all high school dropouts to be sure.....

Many of the richest Americans are or were indeed dropouts. Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Ellison, Evan Williams, Michael Dell just to name a few
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -

Forbes breaks it down, ~15% of 400 richest people in the US only have a high school diploma. For you college dropouts that means ~85% do.

First off, you're talking to the wrong guy, you hostile little monkey turd. If you take issue with something Steve said take it up with him. 15% by the way is not a negligible number. That's 1 in 6.25 or so.
Put that into perspective for a second. Black Americans are somewhere between 14-17% of the population.
So in your mind black people are negligible.
Nice job, racist.

Yep. Truth hurts, unless it's involving a troll that has no idea of what they are saying, they just want a reaction and attention.

That's funny that I make between master and professional degree money.
That means those degrees are toilet paper.
FYI a lot and I mean a lot of tradesmen make that kind of money.

Yep. My top CNC guy makes $30 an hour plus has access to a lot of OT. Can get to $90k+
I've seen CNC guys with CAD knowledge making $40 and hour.
I'm also between a master's and professional... so maybe those numbers are old. Or we're just in the right industry.
No one is saying you CAN'T make money without a Bachelors or higher. We're just calling out people making claims like Steve has that are blatantly anti education.

This country needs more Tool and Die makers, CNC, etc. Most who go to college end up getting a worthless degree like my younger brother who got a degree in journalism. He ended up selling fucking insurance.
