See, I don't believe for a second that a university degree actually mean that much. Neither do I believe that a bus driver or a cleaning person somehow are less smart or able than a director of the company. In majority of the cases one's position in life has very little to do with one's abilities and a hell of a lot to do with which family one was born into.
