Tradesmen Response

I believe that the main argument being made in the documentary is that blue collar workers, tradesmen, etc, are unfairly assumed to be less intelligent than others simply because of the work that they perform. One thing I found interesting about this documentary was the statistics for college debt, inflation and comparisons between public and private colleges, as well as the lack of trades such as carpentry being taught in schools. The documentary was, surprisingly to me, one that I could make connections to. My previous job was in landscaping, which could be rather physical at times. I believe that people look down on tradespeople because of a lack of understanding of the work that goes into their jobs. They are wrong to do so because they (most likely) have not experienced the effort that goes into those jobs.
