Reply #168: Well I believe in education for education's sake

Your aim in a college degree should not be to get the best paying job available but to broaden your mind. So everyone should have a good, liberal arts education at minimum, with enough science and math to give you good critical thinking skills.

And yes, not every profession needs a degree; there should be free vocational training as well. But everyone should have read the classics, know something about science and math and geography and maybe a language or two. You used to learn that stuff in high school, but not anymore.
