[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting study.  I think when one of these researchers kids gets into an elite university, they should allow an underprivileged student to take their child's place instead.  Maybe the members of the Brookings Institution could lead by example.  [/quote]

Interesting - and what exactly is the groundbreaking perspective and enlightening dimension that your programmed child has to offer?    It's not where you're from - it is where you are going.  We have seen what the one perceters bring to the table - and I for one believe they have had their day (signed a one percenter working in the elite, ivy infused policy community).  I agree with Brookings 100%.   If you sat around one of our tables and saw who was controlling the future - and what they have to say you would be appalled by the lopsided and misguided perspective.  Zero creativity.  Zero understanding or comprehension of the problems they are entrusted to solve.    Our system is horribly broken and dysfunctional because of the misguided judgement that experts lacking any meaningful experiences or understanding can solve the problems of the less fortunate.
