Let me assure you people like that really do work in higher ed. "Teach" a course here and there, don't fail anyone, don't anybody rock my boat now, you motherfuckers, and leave me to my research.

This is as nonsensical as positing that under a socialized health care system, the heart rates, blood pressures, weights, and other vital statistics of patients would all be averaged together rather than being individually charted and treated. this is a very good rebuttal and im saving it.

The General posted:That is definitely written by a person who would also tell you that working is good for work's sake and the fact that you get paid for working is a bonus to a job well done and not the reason for working. There is no question at all that this person thinks work makes one free

Thus, its for your benefit that your 8 hour low paying job doesn't give you a living wage.

Also number 4 discounts the economic multiplier effect, giving poor people money actually helps since they, spend it, not hoard it. I am beginning to this story isn't true at all!

I remember that breakdown, it was all meetings, power brunches, strategy naps and 'other '. About 10 hours a week were what normal people would consider to be actual work.

The real tell is that capitalists always assume everyone is lazy and they would rather die than work together to make socialism work After the class gets a lower score because some people decide to "be lazy", the other classmates would probably figure out quickly who isn't pulling their own weight and devise a solution to that.

The second test average was a D! Nobody was happy, and for some reason, seeing the way the trend was going, they all decided to do gently caress-all for the 3rd test and they failed it like idiots. Now I, as a very intelligent capitalist teacher, give one student an A+ because that's the grade I gave his father when he was my student. Three lucky students get Bs and everyone else fails.

That story is obviously bullshit because real professors leave the grading to their grad students and only show up to write poo poo on the board for an hour a week and not take questions.

I know that works for MS-Word files, and can be the saving grace if you've got a corrupted document or one that is too large of a file to open. edit: yep, worked fine, you just need to go to the xl folder and the media folder after that.
