Add the White House, the Senate, the House or Representatives, the FDA, the CDC, the Chinese government, the Chineses military and the Chinese people.

My experience is useful intelligence peaks at the Master’s level.
People with a PhD know one tiny subject very well, but don’t understand anything about the rest of the world.

I’d like to know the jab rate for deplorables.

My experience is that PHDs know a lot of other “experts”, and have learned that the “experts” that appear in public are whores for big corporations and big government.

Graduate school teaches one to be skeptical about scientific claims until sufficient, repeatable evidence is available. One does not simply follow the “consensus” any more than one develops a product solely through committee meetings.
To: Renfrew
I’ll say this (just based on limited contact in life with PhD folks)...if you measured them on pure skeptical nature, they’d measure higher than most other levels of education, on any topic.
To: Enlightened1
A PhD is taught to look at data with a skeptical eye, not just in their chosen field of study.

Your refutation is that PhD’ s have less practical intelligence. And your source is .... wait for it...
You.
Beautiful- beautiful propaganda. Nice job!

My post-graduate studies brain told me that forcing experimental vaccines on a population for a 99.8% survivable virus is dubious at best and most likely pernicious. I have little time for credulous masses pushing WHO / CDC talking points.

It doesn’t take a PHD to read that all previous attempts (peer reviewed studies) to develop a coronavirus vaccine resulted in….ADE!

You don’t get a PhD by agreeing with everything you see without facts and evidence to support it.
Try again.

There are people with paper PhDs, and those who have something more. The most intelligent man I ever knew well had a PhD in philosophy from Princeton (late '60s!), knew 15 languages (Latin, Greek, French, Portuguese, Hindi, Gaelic, Arabic, Spanish, Quechua, etc.) and had great insights on all sorts of things both political and historical. He DID struggle with the microwave, though.

I dislike the term “vaccine hesitancy”, as if the default position is “gimme some of that”. Besides the fact that these shots are NOT vaccines! How about “Hell no to Covid shots-ency”?

They hand out Master Degrees like candy over the last 30 years.

My experience is useful intelligence peaks at the Master’s level. People with a PhD know one tiny subject very well, but don’t understand anything about the rest of the world. What an odd observation given that almost everyone who has a doctorate (PhD) first obtained at least one master's degree. To go from the peak of useful intelligence to not understanding anything about the rest of the world is quite a slide.

Would love to see the rate among MDs and others in the healthcare professions.

Define "useful". In my experience, the people who live the best lives often don't even have a college degree.
