    An interesting view of education. One of the things that has happened over the last 40 years is a move away from only memorising information to pass public exams.

    The only people that "don't need education", are those that didn't get it normally.

    I beg to differ, I reckon 80% of the population are f**king idiots. I'm not talking about qualifications or education either. These do not make you intelligent and do not mean you have any common sense, they simply mean you know how to memorise a text book.

    The country is ripe for the picking, it's full of stupid people with more money than common sense and the supermarkets are cashing in.

    I don't know why they call it common sense, when really it's a rare gift.

    I fully agree with you. I know a lot of 'clever' people. Frankly, their logic and lack of common sense beggars belief.
    This is reflected in the way I see people shop in the big supermarkets, often falling for the obvious pricing traps.
    You have been reading.....another magnificent post by garethgas :beer:
