Turns out very few people have an understanding of Marxism. Not to mention being able to point out differences between communism and socialism. No one reads Karl Marx for fun, only as part of studies in modern political theory. But the truth is the truth. Same applies for logical reasoning, critical thinking, and applying science to solve every day problems.
And the people I hire have to have a Bachelor of Science in Engineering, and a M.S. is preferred. We only accept Electrical, Mechanical, Computer, Automotive or Aerospace degrees.

We all bow our heads in reverence to you, a true Renaissance man. I believe I speak for many others hereabouts when I offer my deepest thanks to you for correcting our careless and errant assertions and our ill-considered theorems about the way things work. We're deeply sorrowful for having offered arguments which - though logically and factually sound - gave you pause. What were we thinking? I ask this of myself, as I can imagine so many others have done. We, the uneducated, are counting on you to guide and correct us. Don't let us down.
