Bloomberg was invited to speak at Oxford in 2016 after Trump's victory but before the inauguration and he took the opportunity to say some nasty things about farmers and factory workers. Of course, Bloomberg probably never did any physical labor in all of his life. His father sent him to Harvard so he was part of the elite from then on. Bloomberg said that you have to be more intelligent to do the kind of work that he does.
Here are his remarks:
"The agrarian society lasted 3,000 years and we could teach processes. I could teach anybody, even people in this room, no offense intended, to be a farmer," Bloomberg said. "It's a process. You dig a hole, you put a seed in, you put dirt on top, add water, up comes the corn. You could learn that. Then we had 300 years of the industrial society. You put the piece of metal on the lathe, you turn the crank in the direction of the arrow and you can have a job. And we created a lot of jobs. At one point, 98 percent of the world worked in agriculture, now it's 2 percent in the United States."
Bloomberg implied farming doesn't take intelligence in 2016 comments
