In the past 100 years, teachers and nurses have been the elites in the countryside, with many school children dreaming of following in their footsteps. Just like with the governors, it took us time to notice the new elites or pseudo elites. Is it time that teachers and nurses moved over and make way for the new elites and pseudo elites? My fear today is that with unemployed teachers and students enjoying unfettered freedom, the prestige teachers used to enjoy is becoming part of popular history. The framers of the Constitution may not have foreseen the emergence of new elites and pseudo elites, who manage money given to them by the national government.
