College degrees

I'm just going to throw this out there.  A college degree does not make you smarter than I am.  All a college degree says to me is you have specialized knowledge in one particular subject.  That piece of paper does not make you any better than me....or the waitress who brings your food, the clerk who rings up your groceries or the person that serves you your ridiculous $18 martinis.  I believe that having an adequate amount of knowledge in many areas would be much more useful than paper.  Remember that the next time you have to call someone like me to help you fix the outlet in your bathroom, fix your dryer, install a garbage disposal or lay new tile in your bathroom.  Looking down your nose at people because you have a pretty piece of paper hanging on your wall is pure arrogance.  The sad part is you will never see it because when you look down your nose all the time your field of vision becomes severely limited.
