How can those people even be standing, I drove by a farm with my window down and that spreader was about 200 yards off the side of the road and it took my breathe away.
Around here they would have been cuffed, booked, and charge with misdemeanor trespassing, {unless any of them were trespassing with a weapon, thats more charges} All their shit would have been left for the land owner, whom they would have had to get permission from to enter the property and retrieve their items. I probably would have dragged it all to the edge of the property with a rake, and complained if they didn't come clean up their trash, and then asked they be charged for littering, and asked for them to pay restitution for removing their trash from the field, and for cleaning it up if they didn't.
 

The real question is why are the high school and some college group smarter than the group with degrees. It made me laugh reading minutes from a school board meeting the other day. The PHD superintendent, called classified employees a dime a dozen. These are people who have worked for the district for years, perform multiple tasks, and constantly go above and beyond doing things that are not part of their job that people with degrees wont do.

And a person who is in a position who's average length of service to a district is 2 years called them literally, "A dime a dozen." "They aren't worth more money." Mean while the school pays a superintendent, and two former superintendents, as advisors while they also collect retirement, all at the superintendent rate. Also meanwhile, they can't fill classified positions, and their starting wage on their salary schedule for those positions has fallen below minimum wage. Which means they are starting people at at step 7 or 8, making the same as people who have been there for 7 or 8 years.

You mean those evil cops where you live would do that? I can now understand how some on this forum have some feelings to the fuzz.

This graph puts me in and amoung a pretty poor group. But the scary part is the fact that bachelors and masters awardee’s, seem to be following the party line, they could and should be a very influential group. They should be the ones who have been taught to think independently. Yet they seem to be following like dogs to a canned doggie treat.

Make one wonder just what is being taught behind the closed doors of academia.

You should be correct but the part that is missing is what are the degrees in? With the current nature of college education I bet a lot of the BS's and MS's are in nonsense and those folks are not smart enough to do their own critical thinking.

I have recently had to deal with this. The professors truly believe this stuff. Those that don't buy into the woke crap won't say anything because they are afraid for their jobs. Colleges won't stop it because some of the funding from the USG is tied to it. As a result the kids get a ton of propaganda delivered to them from true believers. There really is very little room for independent thought in college any longer.

My master’s is in Education. What we were taught is how to teach because, it was assumed we already knew the subjects we were supposed to be teaching. In my case, 30 years of working with people with Developmental Disabilities. Teaching special ed was a no brained (since my good friend and former boss and I pretty much wrote the books, my professors were teaching from).

And that leads me a bit off the subject. One of my professors was actually a class mate in jr and high school. (I was always late in life). After receiving an A on one of her tests, she wrote a really nice compliment, stating “You really listened in class.” I never had the heart to tell her, we were putting those ideas into practice 25 years before I took that test.

There is no need to wonder. You have to have a BA to teach, and for many government jobs. Those could also be the reasons for so much uptake, coercion. That would also be a group predominately with good paying jobs, "too much to loose."
