as usual you offer nothing but ad hominems when you can't defend your argument.
Blah, blah, blah.
Consider these remarks from the National Center for Education Statistics:
*In fall 2016, about 50.4 million students will attend public elementary and secondary schools.
*In fall 2016, some 20.5 million students are expected to attend American colleges and universities ...
Presuming that enrollment in American colleges and universities is not that different from 2015, then only 40% of American students are even going to a post-secondary education.
However, be careful. The above data does not include those going to vocational training - which also gives students the necessary attributes for a job. So, I figure somewhere between 45 and 55% of American high-school students go on to graduate with a post-secondary degree..
From the OECD - both primary and tertiary education (according to the symbol), from here: Education Spending
Hint - look immediately to the far right. US Tertiary education is the most expensive (except Luxembourg).
Look at the facts, one helluva lot of American students never ever graduate from a post-secondary degree program ...
