A smart person is someone who can failed to top. Look at uncle Ben, as he does is running and all he know is running the printing press and he is credit with all the good thing that happens in our life.
Well, hang your head in shame if you consider yourself educated and skilled and live in one of these states supposedly "running out of smart people." (I guess residents leaving and new transplants don't count in this article.)
Numbers and statistics don't tell the whole story. We all know smart and talented people with real-world skills (and no crushing student loan debts) who are successful.
So how do you categorize a "smart person" who doesn't have the education on paper but certainly does in life accomplishments? What's a "smart person?"

Anybody that disagrees with me is by definition, dumb. That is pretty much the prevailing attitude of people, everywhere.
That does seem to be the prevailing attitude, especially in an internet forum such as this one. Thing is, I've known a lot of people in my lifetime, some with higher education, some with less than a high school education. I've known some very smart people with whom I've completely disagreed. I've known some extremely stupid people who quite often come up with ideas I'd never considered and I find myself agreeing with them. And I don't define anyone's "smartness" or "stupidity" by how much education they have or haven't had. I've known some highly educated jackasses and some completely uneducated geniuses.

Well-said! I can't agree with you more!
