It's not my fault that you and FlaJim the other right-wing Asshole

too stupid or lazy to get into a community college back in the day.
Even
a state four year college back then was cheap enough so that a student
could pay his or her way with part time and summer job.
Yeah, **** your country, duck the draft and get a jingle writing job.
Helping your country prop up a series of brutal dictatorships, including
one that resulted in Th*ch Quảng Đức, a Buddhist monk, setting himself
on fire to protest Christian brutality, is not an example of appropriate
patriotism. Oh, and your terminology is deficient, too. Continuing one's
education is not "ducking" the draft so long as one is registered. It's
too bad you didn't avail yourself of a formal higher education...you
might have learned some critical thinking skills.
I met and dealt with hundreds if not thousands of people during my
working career. They typically ranged from entry level tradespeople to
scientists and/or management personal with multiple Phd's. I don't
think I ever met anyone as narrow and shallow minded as you present
yourself here Harry. "Critical thinking" is not your forte, as
evidenced by your comments to any discussion here.
Millions of people in the world, including many posters to rec.boats,
have or had highly successful careers, accomplishments and made
contributions to society without benefit of what you regard as a "formal
higher education". Based on what I have deduced from your contributions
here, many are far more educated in meaningful ways than the high regard
you hold for yourself.
The only people I've met who think and sound like you are those who
chose (or were forced) to remain in academia for all their working
years. Yes, they have an abundance of knowledge, but most of it useless
in the real world.
But no comment from you regarding the "Yeah, **** your country, duck the
draft and get a jingle writing job," eh?
Real critical thinking. D'uh.
I said "many". "Many" doesn't mean "all".
