The College Conundrum

Our glorious leader Barack Hussein Obama has decreed that more Americans should graduate from college, not withstanding that virtually every college has become a liberal indoctrination factory or that the cost to attend has skyrocketed with tuition and fee increases not only outpacing inflation but rapidly eating the government subsidy of tuition aid and swallowing entire lottery scholarships faster than Joey Chestnut wolfs down a Nathan's. The Greeks have long enjoyed virtually universal access to free college and on paper, Greece would seem to be among the most educated countries in the world but that has not exactly helped the Greek economy keep its head above water. Bill Gates and Steve Jobs made incredible fortunes in a highly technical field without completing college degrees. I think the United States already has plenty so-called book-learning but could stand a dose of common sense and that common sense will never leave its owner with one hundred thousand dollars of student debt.
