nahh, i don't want to debate it... it's obvious to me everyone cannot afford to go to college or universities

and it obvious to me some are better off without it, such as job training skills in trades in vocational schools that leads to instant employment and good paying jobs such as they are doing in Germany

i do agree that it would be great if we had free education starting at preschool to higher education

but that is not our current system... so maybe my disagreement is more to the current system which seems to apply to only those who can afford it

our current college/university system seems to be more a profit making venture and social club than actually a job-producing educating platform

of course the big universities are also focused so much on their sports machines where their coaches are paid multi-million dollar salaries to WIN WIN WIN which brings in the big media marketing bucks... where is the education in that?
