Since it is virtually impossible to flunk out of the Ivy League and since that is where our “leaders” come from, we pick our leaders based on what they did in high school

Some decent points but he whiffs on tying the decrease in solid-paying manufacturing jobs to the lack of accountability at the Ivy’s

They have nothing to do with each other

Getting into an Ivy League school might have been the only thing that would have derailed my boy's decision to go to West Point.

Tuition issues aside, it's probably the only time I have been pleased by one of my boys' "failures".

Can't deny the pedigree of an Ivy League degree, and he's pretty solid in his politics, but still...

From the horse's mouth. Jewish guy authors article about Jewish privilege. Check out the picture graphs for the summary. The aristocracy develops a weak chin. It's a bad business model for all long term.

The charts basically prove that affirmative action for Blacks is a myth. Even if i does happen occasionally (it shouldn't) then it really doesnt matter for Non-jew whites seeing as they are far more likley to lose to an Asian or Jew.

9 downvotes for this? Every leftist on the website must have shown up when you pulled back the curtain on their corrupt college admissions scheme.

People DV when someone makes a post only containing a link.

Proper etiquette is to copy and paste the point of the story, or at least provide a couple sentences explaining it.

OP is lazy and uncouth.

That's a really wordy article. I made it through 6-7 paragraphs before guessing that it's trying to make some sort of point that the rich get richer?

Of course that's the case in a capitalistic society. The more money you have, the easier it is to make.
