      ​@@SamtheIrishexanif you don't mind I'd like to give you some input, I'm 29 right now, and I love my career as a mechanic. Long story short. After highschool I went to college because everyone I mean everyone told me I need to go to college to get far in life. Well I did and school was never my thing. After trying and failing multiple classes, I decided to go to skill trades. Now ever since I was little my dad had propertys such as rentals and he'd buy hell hole houses and gut then make them beautiful and either rent it out or sell it. So he taught me plumbing, electrical, drywall, HVAC, framing, siding, windows, flooring, roofing. You name it. If you go to blue collar jobs there's sooo many choices and there is always work. Find something that you find interesting and run with it. Long as you show initiative and listen to the older guys that know their shit. You will learn fast and a lot and don't worry about money, soon as you know your shit you can make a lot of money. Hell even start your own business and charge what you feel is right. There will always be job security, once you become a journey man (I forget how many hours you need I think 10k hours) you can literally go to any state any town, and you will get hired and you can tell them what you're worth.

    Not only do they force you to take classes that are irrelevant to your degree, but the very next term, at least one of those "required" classes is no longer "required." Happened 3 times to my youngest daughter while going for a 2 year degree. She saw it for what it was...a scam...and stopped wasting her money and time. She went to work for Costco and makes more money (almost $30/hour) than her older sister, who holds a 4 year degree. Unless you are becoming an engineer, doctor/nurse, or maybe attorney, college is a worthless.

      The way Charlie is arguing it though is very misleading. Like his example with the coding course for 6-months and then making $180,000 a year. That isn't true. You don't just take a course on coding for half a year, have no job experience, then magically get picked up by a new employer and have them willing to pay you nearly $200,000 a year when you don't know what you are doing! He makes it sound so easy anyone could do it, and that is NOT the case. What he is saying about college is true about SOME of the majors, but NOT all and he does a shitty job of clarifying. This country needs a good mixture of both, because if we don't have both we will be on the first boat to a third world country.

The organization has a lot of connections and partnerships that will take on the graduates from the program and continue training them while giving them on job experience. So yeah, I went through the program and got hired working for an airline company. So far I have 1 year of experience with no college degree. Now what's false is the payment lol, I don't get payed no where near what Charlie mentioned....but if I find another job (from the airline company) with my experience I do have that possiblity.

      It’s been that way for quite awhile now. Once colleges realized they can trick women into all attending… and then they got affirmative action to force in people less qualified they knew they can push silly majors. These people cannot rationalize as well and also assume there is a future job associated with this major. A major shouldn’t be allowed if it’s not able to get a job in the field at a higher percentage. I’d say at least 60% should be able to get a job in the field or it shouldn’t exist.

      I explained that its extremely important to use proper language because legal and illegal immigrants have vastly different experiences, from their journey to housing to employment.
      Ultimately my arguments were against the process of illegal immigration because of the dangers during the crossing (cartels, human trafficking, weapons smugling, etc).

They were still in college. I was 4 to 6 years ahead of them.

      yup. and white collar jobs are so badly over saturated (at least here in Canada), half the time they spend years even getting into the field they paid to work in. blue collar workers keep our country flowing, especially here in Alberta Canada where all the oil is, but hardly anybody wants to get their hands dirty anymore.

      I'm not trying to be demonstrative, I'm really not...being genuine here...but not everyone is good with their hands or is a kinesthetic learner. I'm not going to argue for the people that just don't like to get their hands dirty. I'm saying that everybody has varying attributes by which they excel at and varying ways of being able to learn something. If college is taken out of the equation, what are those people supposed to do then?
