Common sense can prevail in a lot of situations vs. education. But I this happen mostly in the medical field.
Can you cite a study, statistical analysis, independent source to back up that common sense prevails vs. education particularly in the medical sciences? I am curious, if you need surgery are you going to go to a trained doctor with an "education" or are you going to go to someone with "common sense" trusting that they know where to make the proper incision and hope you survive? Similarly, can you show an example of an uneducated person who has developed drugs using common sense approaches prevailing over the years of study most biologists and chemists have to go through in order to learn how to develope medicines? It appears your thesis is that the route to wisdom is to be as uninformed as possible. The history of discovery (including medical science) stands against this assertion.
