And there it is, finally, we understand. So you are implying that the level of a mans success and intelligence is based upon his social and economic status. He's rich, so we should all consider him a success huh? He's a good looking guy who has acting talent, THAT made him a success - not the public school system.

By this measure of a mans success, I'm then quite the enigma. I drive a $100K Mercedes, so I MUST be smart and successful. My two graduate degrees didn't make me successful or intelligent, my car does. The fact that I know the difference between when to use "there" and "their" is the result of a private education, not public. However, I am not in the public eye nor do I make a million dollars a day, so I am not AS successful as Matt Dufus. I would argue that I'm far more successful and that the bank account or public stage does not make the man.

So forget about the two incidents this week where Matt Damon showed that he is dumb as a box of rocks and has absolutely no clue about any issues outside of his little followers circle - he's Ok because he's rich and famous. The public school system didn't fail him so much that he hasn't a clue, it taught him how to act on screen. Got it. When quizzed about why teachers should not be held to account the same as any other job got he same reaction out of Matt Damon as we see in so many uneducated liberals, and that is to blindly attack the person asking the question rather than have to be challenged to support your position logically, intelligently and in an informed way. THAT is always how the uneducated will react to being put into a position to defend their indefensible position.
