I get a lunch break, but you guys get to post here all day.
Rich? Retired? Not me.

I work from home, my wife is my boss, and after 20 years, *we still get
along, couldn't be better. Admittedly much of our business is now
automated, but we spent many a year and hour getting here

I teach at a university in the middle of the state.

What do you teach?

Upper level undergrad and some grad courses in the traditional liberal
arts.

Uh oh, one of the brainwashers!

As you know, ignorance is being worn as a badge of honor by a good
many Americans, including certain beverage-based political
organizations.

Glad to hear there's still some who are committed to edumacating our
yungins.

Through no fault of mine, we have a very high percentage of our students
going on to receive doctorates in the arts and sciences.
Smart is encouraged; stupid is not. :)

And still a political troll post, *no matter how you look at it...

It is trolling to mention teaching and academic achievement?

Look out, you've already raised some hairs. *Just mentioning higher ed
makes folks nervous around here...

Kool-aid is served year 'round hereabouts.

There really is a strong undercurrent of anti-intellectualism in this
country, more so than at any other time I can remember. It's too bad
because a dumbed down America will go down the tubes.

You mean "down the tubes" faster. The Chinese are turning out
engineers at 10 times the rate we are, many of them studying at our
universities.

The emergence of this beverage-based group really puts a point on it..
Their candidates don't require a basic knowledge of the constitution,
pivotal supreme court rulings or basic tenets of law. *Instead, they
just supply a few common sense-isms, rail on the media, taxes, them
smart folks who got us in all this trouble, and mention the day they
accepted Jesus into their lives as their personal lord and savior.

That's it! *You're electable and ready to govern! *Yahooo!

Please don't feel obligated to respond. *I'm already tainted by the
"liberal" stamp and you can remain above the fray. *You should try to
keep it that way as long as possible since you'll have chosen sides
otherwise.

I hope your students help our country rediscover the pride of a
liberal arts education, the ability to leverage well-developed
critical thinking skills, and be of a country that accepts the
responsibility of the social compact between citizens, our obligation
to the state and our country.

Screw the greedy, the globalists and anybody who shops Walmart.

It's ok JPS, our new poster already tainted himself, progressives can't
help it, they just can't play fair here or anywhere else...

I don't know you at all, but you seem extraordinarily volatile and
subject to wide mood swings. One minute you seem to agree this would be
a better place without all the personal name calling and the next minute
you're engaging in it.

Sure, I'm progressive. I believe in progress, in moving forward, in
extending rights, in scientific development, in opening doors, in making
sure the "play" is fair. I don't believe in scapegoating, in blaming one
ethnic group or another for our society's failures, or in trying to get
ahead by scaring large blocks of nervous people.- Hide quoted text -

Your selective criticism here has already given you away... *So go
ahead, tell us all the talking points... *I am for progress too, but
not regressive progress which stifles free speech, and directs every
aspect of our lives... but whatever, I had hopes for you, but no
matter what clothes you wear, a wolf is still a wolf...

Regressive progress? Now there's a term I've not previously encountered.
Moving forward by moving backwards? Would that be like eliminating laws
against children performing dangerous work?- Hide quoted text -

No, more like personal attacks from the Oval office against
individuals and news orgs that have opposing viewpoints... I mean,
allowing Military from racist groups to stand in front of voting
booths., I am talking about three states who are openly allowing
undocumented aliens to vote, canceling the vote of American
citizens.... The list goes on, progressives are not progressive...
