<p>Haha, this is amazing. It doesn’t get dumber than this.</p>

<p>Well, that’s what I used to think. In my high school, most of the substance abusers were lower-income people; moderate drinking went on among the lower middle class students but never anything as disruptive as the many of the lower-class students (a classification of which I of course was a member). We had no upper middle class students. So there.</p>

<p>But it’s not prejudice, since it is more likely they are stating from experience rather than social expectation…</p>

<p>I have a friend in Windham who’s upper middle class. He’s also not a big drinker at all. I think it may just be Cumberland County, because saying lower class students are the ones who drink the most/most excessive simply isn’t true. I live in a very wealthy suburb of Philadelphia, and the majority of the kids from my high school who went overboard were equally wealthy, and subsequently ended up at schools like Penn, Columbia, NYU, Michigan, Cornell, WashU, etc.</p>

You’re probably a very intelligent person, that’s probably why you’re on this site in the first place. But you’re also very naive. Now I’m not claiming to be some old, all-knowledgeable wise-man. But I have seen a few things.</p>

<p>If you’ve never met someone who’s prejudiced against people from their own background and/or upbringing, you surely will at some point.</p>

<p>This thread is absolutely cringe-worthy. No wonder certain schools still get stuck with an elitist/arrogant reputation.</p>
