the college stupids borrowed 100-200k to major in 12th century african art and expect some company to hire them at 80k a year. Now how does that major help any company ? Manufacturing ? no that degree doesn't help, Sales, nope. Business ? nope. McDonalds ? maybe

"I present to you that jobs in the 40-50k range were plentiful we wouldn't have the demonstrations."

Software like Watson and english speaking foreigners will be increasingly taking those jobs. It's inevitable. If it pays business to eliminate a $30k factory worker in favor of a robot, it pays them nearly TWICE as much to eliminate the 40-50k "knowledge" worker.
