"quality of education has a very close link with parental wealth too"
"Are you genuinely denying that there is a strong link between family wealth and quality of education? If so, you amaze me."
Yes, I am saying this. It depends largely on the definition of quality, but I have had the finest education possible without wealthy parents. Expensive education isn't of any higher quality, just broader in scope. This I know from personal experience.
I absolutely agree with the rest of what you say (about qualifications and competence) and have never suggested otherwise. Again, if you want to preach and then pick an argument assuming that I hold some position you disagree with, I'm not interested, I don't hold the kind of views you are ranting against.
