Berkowitz should do a study of state legislatures. There's an effort to dismantle public education in higher ed as well as k-12.

I recently saw a business commentator of FOX News suggest the survivors of the Titantic were just smarter people "and that's why they were rich and that's why they had first class accommodations and that's why they survived."

Really? Obviously the business major has never studied history and learned about all the ways wealth has been concentrated to the upper social classes.
