Are you deliberately moving the goalposts or just forgetting the context? Neither, I was resetting the goal posts to their original position after your movement of them. Which simple words in the English language do you believe I don’t understand? The words I wrote in the comment before that. Also, remind me what it is that you’ve proved? That you can’t read for shit, which incidentally, is not something that I proved, but you did yourself. Either that, or you’re arguing in bad faith. I’m on the fence. Do you not know what illiterate means? I do. (Note: the questions you asked are what’s called “rhetorical questions”. People are not supposed to answer them, so they will think it’s weird if you get mad when they don’t answer them.) Do you think it’s “not that hard” to get a nursing degree or a teaching credential? Not for most people, no. Nursing can be hard to get into, but anyone motivated with a half-decent brain can do it. But as I mentioned before: you don’t have to become a nurse or teacher to be of value to the human race, so don’t get stuck on these two examples, as that is what they are: examples. There are many other jobs that benefit society. Do you think 50k$/year pre tax, the average starting salary for a teacher, is a livable wage? Yes. Let me ask you a question: do you think all starting teachers die? Or live in the street? (Don’t answer, this is another rhetorical one, it’s supposed to make you think about something you’re not getting!)
