so much for value in education

i want to know why the FUCK i am sitting here in class listening to assholes kick around the same old arguments about commodification of the body. and doing a bad job. guess how much i am learning? one thing, and i already knew it: i hate law school and these mediocre motherfuckers in it. they are so goddamned smug it makes me want to spit. do they really believe they are the originators of these arguments? probably, and that is the sad part. and what does this discussion get any of us. can we not think about these issues on our own time? i spent hours preparing for this class yesterday. guess how much it is paying off. this class from the prof who threatened to make it through three assignments today. it isn't that i don't care about the debate about whether people should be able to sell their organs or other parts of their body, it is that i don't see the point in getting involved with a discussion with these people. if there was a good answer to the question, we wouldn't be talking about it. and yet i am surrounded by dozens of people who are pretty sure they have cornered the market on the correct perspective. and good god are they pleased with themselves about it. yeah, i'm pretty unhappy right now.
