Old-fashioned dad ?

Gloomy · F
It's sad how little value is ascribed to an education in a capitalist society.
@Gloomy People without an education should get good opportunities too. But I do value an education, getting one while working full time.
@Gloomy Which makes sense. For Capitalism to exist, people have to be kept ignorant.

Get a degree in philosophy, then go to work packing boxes at the Amazon warehouse.

@graphite Unfortunately accurate.
chrisCA · M
@graphite What is your degree in? Just curious.
graphite · 61-69, M
@chrisCA I don't share much personal information on here. It was along the lines of a liberal arts degree, in that vein.
@AbbeyRhode @Nimbus guys, am I the only one who doesn't guess this?
AbbeyRhode · F
@BritishFailedAesthetic He's saying that a major in philosophy won't exactly open doors in the job market.
@AbbeyRhode Thanks for that! Yeah, she should choose a more useful subject like business.
College education should be free!
@BritishFailedAesthetic
College education should be free!
Sure, then who is going to pay for it?
@LamontCranston The taxpayer like every other such expense......
@BritishFailedAesthetic There should always be an * after "free"

It's been pointed out that there's been no anti-Israel protests at the trade schools. You know - by people ready to get their hands dirty as craftsman in any number of fields.

College is too expensive in the US to entertain a useless degree.
Nimbus · M
@Adogslife Good point.
chrisCA · M
Chances are, this dad didn't even go to college.
Nimbus · M
@chrisCA Good point.

@chrisCA When you fail to pay your electric bill, he'll be the one to turn your lights off. Oh, and he makes more money than you.
chrisCA · M
Dad probably never went to college, and does not appreciate the Liberal Arts.
