This is how it should be here too.
Inequality is accepted in so many other places in the USA, in ways that are far worse than this.
The anti-intellectualism is a very, very real thing in the USA. In not good schools, you WILL be bullied for being cerebral.
At this point, no amount of understanding of "oh the bad kids grew up in poverty and had social/economic reasons for being bad" is going to fix these kids up.
You want to disrupt education for the rest? Teachers will disrupt the rest of your earning potential. Seems like a fair trade too, since the criminals are all getting laid and the MIT kids are all staying virgins. It takes 15 years to mint another "elite" educated individual. Just a few bad apples can destroy all of this work of trying to get someone to the MIT level. Get the bad apples out.
