[Bernard Marx]

The Liberal Arts faculties are teaching generally useless subjects, and these branches of the Universities should simply be closed down.

If you mean that literature, history, philosophy, etc. are currently being taught badly by many politically-indoctrinated fools, that's one thing. But if you mean that the subjects themselves are useless and should be closed down, I would consider that one of the most outrageously uneducated -- and useless -- remarks I've heard in my lifetime.

[Lessismore]

The combined expenditure by parents and government of upwards of $100K on a Bachelor's of Arts degree in literature, history, philosopy, etc, represents an egregious waste of resources.

I'm not denying that there is great benefit in studying them throughout ones life. Perhaps if the subjects were banned they would be better studied.
