I don't understand why you're talking so much about college. You didn't even finish high school.

What I do know, however, is that, after I consolidated my loans, I was paying about $110/month for repayment. Just spoke with a student this week who received a similar degree. She's paying $1500/month. (Or rather, she's trying hard as hell to.)

Who should fix this? Dunno. But that's insane.

Why would anyone borrow tens of thousands of dollars, to get a degree that won't land you a job that can pay it back? That's just insane.

Well ripping kids off for higher education is almost entirely a Democrat scam so I'm going to go ahead and say that responsibility lies with them.

Because their parents, teachers and government have all been telling them that if they just go to college they can do anything they want!

No one ever sat Johnny down and told him he didn't have the noodle to be an astronaut and needs to get real skills to make money instead of getting in debt to line some Democrats and their buddies pockets.

No one ever sits Sue down and tells her she needs to learn how to fuckin' weld, chase turds, run conduit or operate an excavator so that they can feed themselves.

How do you get the job that'll pay it back without the degree?

Is the answer that no one gets degrees and everyone gets lousy jobs?

(Oh, my bad, I forgot: hard work and faith solves all problems.)

I have a good friend who dropped out of HS to start a landscaping company when he landed a contract for 8 apartment complexes.

He grew it, now has a couple dozen crews and makes several million a year.....cutting the grass/hedges.

A degree doesn't get you a good job and lack of a degree doesn't mean you will get a lousy one.

In certain fields it certainly helps...but when it comes to making money it's not the end all be all bullshit most idiots push.

(Oh, my bad, I forgot: hard work and faith solves all problems.)

Hard work, social networking and kissing the right bureaucratic/political ass gets the money ones solved. No degree in pre-industrial female Russian literature needed.

You mean I can wipe my ass with my liberal arts degree? Shocking!!!

A degree doesn't get you a good job

Yes it does. Ill be eating brunch by the ocean this morning, and there's no doubt that my degree - which does not pertain to my field of work - was instrumental in that reality.

Do I think lack of a degree should preclude a qualified person from getting a job? Absolutely not.

But it does. Often. Daily. Hourly.

Please, assholes like you do not work...mentally too broken an unfit to hold a job. Sure, you could be a government asshat ... but too unstable to have a real job

Plus, with that prison record ... well that will keep you from real employment.

 

[BotanyBoy]

Yes it does.

There are millions of drink/food slinging and trash collecting degree holders out there who would disagree.

It CAN.....but it doesn't always. Not even close.

Yea I do that every morning....weather permitting of course.

It may have been and it certainly does help in certain cases.

But a degree is no grantee....certainly not the kind the (D)'s try to church it up as being so they can fill their pockets.

Yea and some of them should preclude because there is no other way to be qualified.

But you sure as fuck don't need one to get paid.

Have you ever noticed a kid will go to college and get a degree then end up on a job that has nothing to do with what he learned?
Sadly a janitor or burger flipper needs an education today.

Nothing wrong with that.

College has far more meaning than just preparing you for the job you want.

Not always true...my sister makes big bux with hers. Communications degree and a mastaz in some shit I forgot but is to do with human behavior.

Big bux telling companies how to make their shit more appealing to more people.

Pfizer, Microsoft, Amazon, Home Depot, Google, xynga .....every 6-18 months she's got a new contract for big bux. Right now Google is trying to get her back from Microsoft.

Well maybe if our primary education wasn't complete fuckin' shit to give the idiots out there a warm fuzzy of fairness they wouldn't need a god damn vocational secondary education to flip burgers.
