[extropy-chat] education

[Hara Ra]

I learned early on as a gifted child that the prejudice towards same is as 
bad as racism. Lotsa money for the losers, ignore the winners. Once I saw 
this, public education lost me totally. I never ever vote for edu bond 
issues, which make taxes, but does not help the gifted.

Now shall I rant: Compulsory uplifting for all!
