If there is something demanded to be supplied here will be jobs,the only thing that destroys jobs is government regulation.
Yeah, so it is a Very Stupid waste of money that all the European economies are attracting their children to Tertiary Education by making it free, gratis an for-nothing. (Along with Health Care, in which the US too refuses to make nationalized.)
Anyone who thinks advancement in educational attainment is "not particularly worthy to an individual" is a first-class crackpot very likely because s/he does not have an advanced degree ...
As long as unemployed euro PHds are not too pround to bend their back and work with their hamds why not send everyone to college?
It is not just the expense, it is that the university is now so broken that 4-6 years of time invested into their programs dont accomplish much. So little is asked of the customers (called students in a nifty Orwellian twist).
Piffle and prattle.
I don't doubt that some doctorate-graduates today are having difficulty in finding a job, but the long-term trend is very different. We are coming out of one of the worst recessions since the Great Depression (and largely because politically we made some very tragic mistakes as of 2010, with the change of control in the HofR).
The reality as described by the Census Bureau* is this:
*"Census" (get it?), meaning a general reflection of the circumstances for all Americans.
Government regulation and high taxes are not the only thing that destroys jobs
Free trade with low wage countries destroy jobs too
By definition outsourcing jobs create jobs.

the key to building jobs, jobs, jobs is the challenge of moving our workforce up-market...
No it doesnt
Outsourcing jobs just creates more unemployment or underemployment
you mean jobs in China for example?
Yes I'd assume Steve Jobs was quite the first class crackpot.
The argument is not that it is worth it, the argument is that it is completely overrated and is not necessary for most people attending school because there is a lack of demand for the degrees. A lot of people go to school and get credits in things like women's studies then they leave school with 60k worth of student loans, and guess what they can only get a job airing tables because no one cares about people who major in women's studies.
An advanced degree is needed for a select few people. But not for everyone.
Yes it does it equilibrates the excess supply of labor
Reread the chart.
It IS or should be for everyone who strives to achieve the necessary education.
I've no doctorate, and I don't feel any less at my potential. But my father did not even get that chance to fulfill his. This generation must be given, literally given, that opportunity.
We must allow our children to do so, and in a country that has wasted billions on the DoD it is about time it employed billions making Tertiary Education available to all comers free, gratis and for nothing.
Allowing them the opportunity to reach their full potential, regardless of the level - which is a lot better than remaining ignorant or insufficiently educated all one's life ...
I think we need to be sensible and understant that everyone needs a basic education but not everyone needs 20 years of school to be a successful contributing member of society
MORE BRAIN THAN BRAWN
It has become apparently true that a basic education (High School diploma) is simply not enough.
Sorry to bore you with the same argument repeated over and over again. But with Manufacturing currently providing barely 13% of GDP any further increase will depend upon the use of automation. Manufacturing is not dying in the US, but is making a major reformation that accommodates not only machine-automated fabrication but also new-tech design-to-product cycling.
Meaning that the industry will require "more brain than brawn".
Once again, I insist that it was a colossal mistake not to listen to Hillary/Bernie who proposed subsidized post-secondary education for our youth and those who want to "recycle themselves".
We are going to regret that mistake enormously ...
I am not against education but many men do not need college
They can qualify for a good job through trade school
And be careful about throwing more money at education
Much of the money just ends up being wasted and benefits no matter me except the educarirs
Really like how automobiles displaced all the buggy drivers?
Oh, come off it. Too much drama in this forum!
Just go back to school and get the qualifications that you need to find a job. You grew up thinking life was easy.
Well, we aint on "Easy Street" any more. As always, the world changes and we are obliged to change with it.
(Oh, dammit, I forgot. The Dork is going to change all that! Please excuse me, I hadn't realized that we just elected a magician ... !)
"Eventually" is not now
You and other dreamers walk around as "someday" is already here and it isn't
