About time, most jobs don’t require a degree and most Bachelors can be replaced with industry tests.

Yes, but this is Massachusetts we're talking about. The degree won't be replaced with industry tests. It will be replaced with party cards and political tests. The democrats are restoring an unrestricted spoils system.

Except that unlike the spoils systems of olden days, the new hires will be tenured. Massachusetts will end up with civil service job protections without civil service entry requirements. When they eventually remember why the civil service system was instituted in the first place, it will be too late. The hacks can't be fired.

You don’t need a degree to give drivers license tests or sign people up for gubmint cheese. Local government jobs require higher skills but the only requirement is to win an election.

Absolutely true. The jobs were done just fine in the 1960’s when a very small percent of people held degrees. I’d love to starve the over priced colleges.
