How about those of us who don't have the level of degree that you have get to decide, since we outnumber you?

Personally, I'm in favor of a flat tax, or tax based on consumption. Anything else is really just unfair, and reduces incentive to try and better yourself and your progeny.

You worked hard for your degree and you should be proud of it and all that it stands for for you - and I really don't think anyone should be able to take that away from you just because they think it would benefit them. That's my point. If you think it was a waste of time getting it because you can't pay the rent with it - why did you?
