[QUOTE="DriveInDriveOut, post: 3064471, member: 44954"] I'm a truck driver and I benefited greatly from English classes, I still read a lot and the things I've learned through literature and history helped me better understand the world and be a better citizen in general. It's about striving for a better society as a whole. People complain that parents are a big part of their child's education then suggest knowledge is useless just learn a trade. I get what you're saying, but a lot of people demonize trade skills as outdated and as being for stupid people. But a lot of people also demonize higher education as being some liberal sham to make everyone a communist. Its all nonsense. [/QUOTE]
