    Years ago, I saw a poll taken to determine what word was most important in a person's life.  The word 'education' was way up at the top BUT the word 'experience' was chosen above all.

    That must have been many decades ago. Today "educated" and "education" instill fear in those who aren't educated. Folks run the other way and block their ears when they encounter an educated person. With regard to experience I don't think that's true at all. I think the most important thing to many is believing in something/someone so much nothing else matters and BELONGING to a group who believes the same exact thing. They fear independent thought or figuring things out for themselves.. They cling together in desperation and fear of being alone. They will accept much that is harmful and evil just to belong. Experience means nothing nor does someone's track record. The person they worship can be a piece of trash and immoral but they can still love support defend believe in him/her/it/them. Sadly true and we suffer for it. Thank you for your reply bh! :) This post was edited by RosieG at July 3, 2018 7:27 AM MDT

    Whoa! You sure went off line with those comments.  Millions of people are pursuing a better education so they can develop the experience to be of value in the job market.

    Good for them! A coupla weeks ago we were told that the Departments of Labor and Education would be combined. The Secretary of Education, Billionaire Betsy de vos, has never attended public school. She pushes vouchers, private education and ignored the public sector. After all being as how she is a billlionaire what could she possibly know about it? Also awhile back she said there was a panel that would be discussing SCHOOL SAFETY and she said guns would not be part of the discussion. Your prez attacks/insults "elites". He whines about not being considered an "elite" since he has a degree and tons of money. As if anything could turn a thug like him into a refined gentleman. So you tell me about how awesome the respect for  education is today under King don. Sounds like a loverly fairy tale. Do you believe in fairy tales bh? Education and educated people and intelligence and right and wrong USED TO BE respected/admired/revered. Not so today with King thug in charge. Just my opinion. You got yours. I got mine. You like your prez. I despise mine. So what? Thank you for your reply. Offline? What does that mean? Is it the same as out of line? Who draws the line? I'm gonna ask.
