I agree. And the fact is, college is not for everyone. People can pursue many careers with great income potential, without taking on debt, and without taking the 5-6 years it takes to complete.
However, I believe in collusion with modern liberal educators, the left pushes this degree meme.
People argue college is necessary because of technology. Ridiculous. What technology? My 5 year old granddaughter can sit down at a computer, or an iPad, and jump on to youtube kids videos without any input from adults. Kids are born with the stuff and live with it every day.
You would be amazed. My degree is in Business Technology Management, information systems are becoming more and more commonplace but you would be amazed how much resistance there is to technology, even if it makes their job easier. It is not just sitting at a computer, is is using things like Excel, SAP, and SAS. Part of the reason my degree even exists is because people suck at learning technology, especially the older generation but the younger generation is not immune either.
