I know that Populists like to label teachers, politicians doctors lawyers (the well educated) as the elite BUT we live in a Capitalist society and, therefore, the real elite are the Billionaires.....not middle class well educated professionals.
That said, I can understand populists bagging the well educated because they have failed to climb the education ladder even though our welfare state has given them every opportunity with free secondary education and highly subsidised tertiary education.
Even those on these threads who cant put a sentence together can always take some night courses at local ACE or TAFE.
