try it a few more times, nothing shameful in that. everyone reads at a different level.
why is “everyone needs a degree these days” an argument for government funded college rather than a less intrusive government, which forces everyone from lawyers to teachers to go to college ???

don’t forget how undergrad has just become a weird waiting period for most professional degrees. Pre-med, and pre law are doing so little for folks who actually enter either professsion

Plus tons of fake non-professional Master’s Degrees from elite universities that are less rigorous than most high school classes but require undergrad to limit themselves to mid-career executives, because if we allowed teenagers to take them the scam would be revealed

Not true, in CA legal apprenticeship is a thing and you can become a lawyer the way Abraham Lincoln did.

Oh-- you're just holding the book upside down, Mike! Easy mistake. If you turn it the right way up, it actually reads: "What can we use as an argument to get government-funded college? What about 'everyone needs a degree these days'?" It parses much easier that way : )

People have become so thoroughly comfortable with being parented that they cannot imagine an alternative force for shaping society other than government policy or corporate culture (Hollywood, legacy media, social media influencer). Just gotta help em imagine

And for the teachers — like those in my family — to get an increase in pay, you must obtain a masters degree. The increase in pay pays for the degree!
