but of course! since professors are so intelligent, they deserve to be in control rather than the foolish, ignorant rubes who run things under a capitalist system and continually ignore their intelligent comments and suggestions, all firmly rooted in theories that only intelligent people (like jimmuh carter) can possibly understand.

of course, under socialism the intelligent elites run things -- any intelligent person would see its self evident and rationally satisfying superiority as an economic system... fortunately, there is always france where the intelligent elites, graduates of the best ecoles, run things.

perhaps all these intelligent professors would be happier in france, peut etre?

as for me, i'd rather have a bit of wisdom than a lot of intelligence...

Most of us are acutely aware of our limitations. Many college professors, however, are proof that there is a difference between intelligence and wisdom.

And they don't realize it.
