The "anti-college" mindset

>Funny thing is that while skill-based degrees like engineering has high immediate pay-off they actually fare worse when it comes to lifetime earnings. Even millennial humanities grads eventually move on to something more lucrative than serving coffee
This is absolutely true... very rare to see engineers move up without getting management skills... one reason you see so many engr to MBAs.

the fuck is a professional degree?

>The fact is they have soft skills which are necessary for moving into high-level position while dorito-encrusted engineering students don’t.
Lmao, fuck engineers, but I can't believe youre this deluded.

but everyone does this, so 100k in SF is literally nigger tier money

How did you come up with that number?
In my country 2.36% of the yearly budget goes towards paying tuition fees for students, financing research, paying lecturers their wages, maintaining the buildings, etc.
23.5% of that yearly budget is made up of income taxes of all kinds.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but if we look at this proportionally and if we pretend that the budget would shrink by exactly as much as free education costs, my country not having free education would mean that the income tax would decrease by 0.55%. I was never good at math, so maybe I'm confusing some things.

It's not an accurate representation because you can't get a professional degree in e.g. women's studies, which severely deflates the value of the average earned by people with real degree holders. This should at least be compared by broad field (e.g. tech vs health vs services vs social sciences).

Yeah you don’t need a actuarial science degree to get in. But the the EL market is fucked. There’s only 288 el jobs in the us ffs. Only 9 EL jobs in my city which is a major city too.

Didn't you get enough of reposting this two weeks ago?

Imagine not going to college because you thought you were gonna be the next zuckerboig or something, lol

Not a great article but better than nothing.
My point is USA federal taxes are at least 10% lower than a country like Germany or UK. That increased tax pays for social medicine, education, and welfare... my point is only that education is not free there, your parents, then you, pay for it in taxes.
