Disappointed in reaction from professors regarding business

I was extremely disappointed to read the University of Mississippi’s professor’s response to your article on Brock Smith’s arrowhead business.

All of these people have degrees that are only good for teaching other people what they know about their area of expertise. All of their paychecks come from taxes.

I wonder, if they ever take into consideration, if it weren’t for entrepreneurs, like Brock Smith, who has a significant amount of his income taken from him every year in taxes, these professors would never get a paycheck. It would be interesting to know if any of these professors who signed this letter, have ever signed the front of a paycheck as Brock Smith does on the first and 15th of every month.
