You are incorrect only in your perception of my belief. I'm not all or nothing stereotyping college, I'm stereotyping the people who went to college and come out of it demanding college loan forgiveness only. STEM, the trades and are such are generally worth it. I would say that your degree was worth it, even my degree was worth it to me even though I'm not using it. I'm just stereotyping the ones who won't pay their loans and are demanding others do, you know the rioting antifa Evergreen crowd. Not all college graduates are like that but all the ones out screaming in the street about paying off loans they took out are.

I think that if you came out of college without the understanding that college is just one of many paths in life, you are outraged by the fact that college isn't free your education was worthless. These people even say "I'm six figures in debt with a worthless degree," so not all people that went to college have a worthless degree but all the ones outraged and demanding other people pay for a degree that they themselves worthless didn't get a real education. They know their degree is worthless, that why they don't want to pay.

Not that all college degrees are worthless, if you or your family paid for it obviously you believe it has value so I will agree with your belief because it was backed up with action. If you are unwilling to pay the degree obviously you don't believe it's worth anything. I don't accept them not being able to afford it, because they can reduce luxuries in their life and even a minimum wage job will eventually pay it off. If you say your degree has value and you or your family paid for I believe you. If you say your degree has no value and you and your family refuse to pay for it, I believe you too.

I know people that lived in luxury apartments with financed money and I know other people that were homeless living in tents or vans that went to college. Why should that latter person pay for the former just because he was willing to make the sacrifice to be homeless when broke in order to get ahead.

I'm just pointing out that there are other options, nobody forced you to go to college and that it is extremely possible to be successful in life without going to college because the Bernie people don't seem to understand this either.

The thing about philosophy is that it is entirely possible to get an A in a philosophy class while simultaneously explaining just how wrong the professor is on everything he said in a very detailed way. It just has to not contain any logically fallacies. Telling full of sh!t marxists they are full of sh!t is allowed and actually encouraged. I have had professors give me an A in class straight up tell me that even though they disagree with my point of view it's still logically valid and he thanked me and said he was glad I was in the class because without someone to argue back and forth with he couldn't even teach the class or use the Socratic method without an interlocutor. Maybe he was a full of sh!t Marxist or maybe he was just taking one position like a devils advocate? Kind of like how I stake out extreme positions not because that's what I 100% believe, but I'm staking them out because I want people to argue against it. The truth is somewhere in the middle but someone has to take one side, someone the other and that's how we find out where in the middle the truth is. Moderate and reasonable opinions don't belong on the darkside.

Nodding yes along with the rest of your post. But it's boring to talk to people I agree with, it's like a circle jerk. I wish there was somebody who was writing posts like yours and mine who were on the other side of the issue.

But other than not quite understanding my actual opinion here is not completely your fault. I didn't provide enough details.

I will rate that 4/5 pillows boomer.
