    I call bull$hite on this.
    You could have stopped at "working their two jobs". Who cares why they do it
    if the results are dumb kids who don't know about the world around them? I
    know piles of people who work two jobs just to feed their kids and their kids
    are still dumb.

    Most people I know with Escalades and Mercedes convertibles sure as HECK don't
    work two jobs.
