We could use a national discussion about the costs and benefits of college.

Politicians of both parties, for decades, have touted the benefits of “having a well educated work force for the 21st century”, and other such trite expressions. And that ties in with their wanting as many young people as possible to go to college.

But the way the economy is structured, huge numbers of jobs and careers do not require a college education. There is no benefit to college for many sectors of our economy. Yet we push people to go to college.

Not to mention, H1B visas, plus illegals in the workforce.
