College May Not Be Worth It Anymore
I assert the expense of college is an awful burden to put on someone who must finance most of it through debt.  It's a gamble.  You can improve your odds of a happy outcome in that gamble by looking at the Student Loan Default Rate for any given major at any given college, and picking the best program for you (with the lowest default rate possible.)But if you are a child of parents who can finance your college?  Absolutely.  No question.  This is essentially a way to enforce Aristocracy.I believe college should be free, and that colleges should limit their number of students in any given program to some sustainable number, where the graduates can actually earn a living.Not to pick on them, but do we really need this many Art History Majors?Veterinarian programs specific limit how many students they accept, because if they didn't, their graduates wouldn't be able to afford a living wage.  Other majors need to catch on.And then what if you don't get accepted to a program?All I've got is Universal Basic Income.  And progressive taxes to pay for it all.Any other thoughts?  I welcome honest discussion, because I hope it will inform my views.
