Of course. They are all sooo much smarter than us. We can't be trusted to think for ourselves. Yeah, right.

Flunkies who couldn't pass the Math portion of the SAT... We trust you - to have no idea about what you are talking about until election time, when it's kissing time...

"Ever since the Industrial Revolution, investments in science and technology have proved to be reliable engines of economic growth. If homegrown interest in those fields is not regenerated soon, the comfortable lifestyle to which Americans have become accustomed will draw to a rapid close" - Neil deGrasse Tyson

So, yeah, screw the lawyers and politicians who couldn't add value to society if their very life depended on it. Oh, and stop voting for the fkng idiots, too.
