        So the GOP master plan is working... convince people that education is bad so that they are more easily manipulated into voting against their own self interest.

        Education comes in many forms, but my point was more about learning about other people and places outside of our immediate surroundings. Education is about having a view the world instead of just your neighborhood. That is the value of an education and why the GOP is against it.

        American parents are too busy encouraging kids to be athletes or actors. Let's show the kids the glamor of being in STEM and Entrepreneurs.

        To be fair brain surgery or teaching teenagers or working a factory line are also not easy. And yet-our society places a higher dollar value on “making a 3D person come alive..”

        Doesn’t matter to me whether you go or not. I’ll hire smart kids. If they come with an American or foreign diploma, doesn’t matter to me.

        I tend to agree. There are many well paying jobs that don’t require a 4yr degree. Tech school or on-the-job training can increasingly lead to $50k/yr+ jobs. Ask @mikeroweworks. There are also many with expensive degrees making less.

        Yes but that is because he has a valuable skill set. Not going to college only works if you develop a bankable skill set that is in demand.

        It’s funny, the people who are being left behind economically are the ones saying that college isn’t worth it. While the ones succeeding in today’s economy are getting degrees and furthering their education

        Not sure about that. Plumbers and electricians would disagree

        Trades often require classes too, and are a needed well paid function, that doesn’t invalidate higher education:

        Correct trade careers do not require a 4 year degree but they do require about 4 years of classroom and on the job training before you can become a master electrician or journeyman plumber.

        And no where near the debt we are saddling our youth with today in the name of college stadiums and ncaa sports programs.
