The post you are reporting:
I don't agree at all, it's a lot of nonsense - no one keeps anyone down who has had a good education and it doesn't need a degree.
For an ordered society, there are always those who lead and those who follow and learn how to lead, then it's their turn - whatever level of society you aspire to.
I left school at 15 with no "O" levels. I got a job at a builders merchants and went to a College of Further education in St. Albans, where I was born and brought up - in a Council house, to get some qualifications - which I eventually did.
I had several jobs, each one a little better than the one before, until I got a job with NatWest at their computer centre in London, where I worked for over 24 years.
I had an unpolitical/non-political upbringing, it was a Council house area, where everyone was the same, but the Fathers worked, Mums brought up the kids.
There was no oppression, no big magnates keeping us down; all my brothers and sisters got jobs and worked well.
If you work at a decent education, it will be the key to freedom: freedom from poverty, freedom from boredom and frredom to do what you want to do, to realise your dreams.
There's always someone better off than you, as there are people worse off than you.
I'm comfortable where I am, because I have worked for it.
