weeeeell, the key word in your response is that you DON'T THINK that's the case. you don't know (and neither do I, since I don't feel like researching it) !
but my main point that I was trying to get across is that the type of education one has had, or the amount of money their families have shouldn't have anything do do with anything. it's easy to sit here and say "well who cares, rich people are rich, they can get ahead in life easier anyway", but from a truly objective standpoint, I'd rather see someone who has the IQ and credentials get a job over the less qualified person anyday, even if they're already a millionair. dumb people can go to great schools too. anyone can pass tests and regurgitate information. it's the practical applications and common sense that make a person worth employing.

I didn't realize you weren't from the US. I have never heard of the place in your location under your avy. i thought it was a ficticious place... (or maybe it is and you just haven't listed where you actually live, hell if i know! sorry to sound dumb)
