The Left has cultivated the ‘young skulls full of mush’ for decades. A majority come out of college with extreme Leftist views. They only start returning to sanity when/IF they start working and have to fend for themselves.

““The way that Marx wrote it is different than the way it’s been implemented, so I like the way Marx wrote it, not the way it’s been implemented,” another student submitted as a justification for communism’s questionable record, adding that “I hate it” when questioned on her views of capitalism.”

The above makes your point. On the other hand, I'm actually seeing a significant number of college students leaving school after several semesters, unhappy. These are very bright kids who got into competitive schools after working very hard in high school, and when they get on campus they feel that its a sterile environment, and not what they thought they were working to become part of.

“I'm not learning anything. This has nothing to do with what I want o accomplish in life.”

I think the whole concept of what constitutes higher education is going to have to be rethought and restructured. It's too expensive, has become restrictive of thought rather than encouraging thought, and I think online learning and work-study programs would serve a lot of young people much better.
