RE: 59 pct of Republicans now think College is bad for America
I'm a high school graduate with a 6-figure job, making more than those 4-year and even some 6-year college grads around me. That said, I quit 13 classes shy of my B.S. so I have a bit of view on each side:
I did learn some things in college.
Those things have not helped me in the real world.
I closed the 'pay gap' by being a force on the job and outperforming those around me. I learned what needed to be learned on the job as quickly as I could. Some of the people here spend hours arguing about philosophical ideas on how we could do things better. I spend that time experimenting in the work itself and finding the best outcome without the wasted debate.
College isn't for everybody. I would even say college isn't for most.
Just my two cents.
