Looks to me like the Democrat running for Governor of Ohio?

In fairness, I think this guy is less of a left or right-wing nutjob and more of just a straight up nutjob. Those scrawled on papers he was throwing around while yelling "high treason!" used to be the kind of thing that got you committed to a mental institution. You know, before the left had them all shut down (I mean, why would you want your core demographic institutionalized and unable to vote?).

Nope, which is the reason someone like Trump was elected in the first place. He plays their games better than they do. He hasnt stooped to their lowest levels yet though. Just imagine if Trump did everything the previous admin did.... Crushing dissent with the IRS, EPA, DOJ, etc.

Most folks go to college to become dumb as fuck!

When I graduated college my class of 9000 students was populated by 5000 liberal arts majors who were celebrating spending $80 Grand to go to grades 13 through 16 and obtain a degree no more useful than a GED. Then there was me with 270 other engineers, in the 4 years since I graduated I’ve made enough money to pay back what was spent on my education.

I’m of the opinion that there are tens of thousands of kids that would be far better off going into a trade than spending a dime going to college. I know personally if I hadn’t made it as an engineer I would have switched to become either a machinist or a welder.

But if you learn a trade you are not part of the elite... the elite sit spend others money while tinking champagne glasses resting their feet on the backs of the worker scum.

My dad was a welder! He went to the journeymans local when he was young. Made 6 figures for a lot of yrs. I agree, if your not going to college in something that can make a lot of money, learn a skilled trade!

I work with a LOT of highly educated folks. Many of whom are very affluent.

That being said here's some things I've learned, being one of the few non-college educated people at my place of employment:

1. Some of the most ugly, petty, arrogant and close minded people are ones that perceive themselves as educated and affluent. Many have very high level degrees, and are paid quite handsomely.

2. Some of the most kind, considerate, patient and understanding folks are also highly educated and affluent. (Note #1)

3. Intelligence and Education are not the same thing.

4. Affluence is quickly lost, when one's intelligence is not on par with one's education.

5. Money does not equate to affluence or influence. Much like leadership has very little to do with status or position.

6. Character, integrity and honesty are infinitely more respected, admired and appreciated than education, position or salary.

7. A higher education helps open doors, but the doors are never locked to those who can figure out which keys go to which doors.

8. Power comes in many forms, and not all of them require education, position of money to obtain or use. Power does require intelligence, maturity and perspective to use effectively and wisely.

9. The higher you move up, the less control you actually have.

10. Never, ever, ever lose appreciation for those that do the menial tasks (janitors, clerks, technicians, facilities, etc). They are the ones that keep the machine moving. The ones that all to often become fixtures of the environment in many peoples minds. They may not know which fork goes with what course, understand the nuanced differences between particle physics and chemical physics, or be able to understand orbital decay and it's impact on the mission profile, but they often work a hard and thankless job. And ultimately, its those same folks that will likely be the ones that pull your ass out of the fire when everything goes pear shaped. Be kind, be generous, be sociable, take the time to talk and learn about them. While you may see the broader picture, privy to details they may not know or understand, their view is just as important. ...Because they know (intimately) their piece of the puzzle far better than you ever will, and you'd do well to heed their advice and/or warnings.

At any rate...I'm waxing poetic and felt the need to vent...carry on.

I think we really need to consider common sense gun laws here. Anyone voting for a leftist or espousing leftist ideology should be forever banned from buying or possessing guns

Not a bad idea. At the very least that would cut down or completely eliminate mass shootings in this country. As a bonus the inner cities would be safer too.
