Through smarts and hard work you gain respect. Not through smarts alone. You disagree, thats fine, but for people like me and my parents, and so on, university is a luxury.
Before tuition fees, it was a place for rich parents to send the kids, who later became politicians, who later abused the system.
And all the while it is the respectful hardworking people of britain, who keeps us going.
I agree with your "you reap what you sow" attitude. My attitude is the same. In my case, if you have a talent, it will always be there, its how you apply it that is the challenge.
