Only 29% of Americans have a college education. Is that pathetic?

Question

http://www.usatoday.com/news/education/2005-02-02-college-cover_x.htm

This is what happens when we live in a society that basis its values on arcadic, agrarian society values like procreating like the world is about to end and worshipping false gods. Instead of a society base on math, science, the arts and culture (only 18% of Americans have a passport) .

What do you think?

Answer 1

There's a cause behind your result. Unfortunately, when I express my idea on what it is, I get called a bigot, a racist, and an anti-semite. Even though all I'm against is a group of people trying to take over the world (No matter their identity) and inhibit liberty for all.

Ever heard of "Protocols of The Learned Elders of Zion"?
Everything in this document has come into fruition except one thing: a global government. It's on its way, though. (The U.N. anybody?) Research and learn. Zionists own you, me and everything else in the world.

Answer 2

If you live in this country and you are unhappy why not try to make a change in our School system? Make a difference in the way Children learn and are taught. Make a difference in an affordable alternative to College for all people not just the wealthy. What have you done in your life to change the planet and make it a better place to live in? Stop the name bashing and finger pointing and get off your high horse and make a difference. One of the reasons America has fallen victim to this evil is because they took GOD out of the realm. DO YOUR HOMEWORK stats will prove my point. Since GOD is no longer allowed in our schools our system is suffering.
GOD loves everyone!m Just because people choose to further educate themselves does not make them an acceptable person and untouchable. More than half of the mass murderers and criminals i.e ENRON etc. were very well educated.
I will pray for you
Peace

A college education is not needed to make a living, get rich, be happy, contribute to society or be a great human being. What's pathetic is the continual degrading in the quality of college education. Many are graduating today knowing less and with fewer skills than good high school graduates of 50 years ago.

Answer 4

We have worked both with people who have held multiple degrees, and those who barely finished the 8Th grade.
I will tell you even though my husband and I have plenty of formal education, the majority of our "real learning" has come from all those who actually had the experience, and wisdom gained from life, and doing the jobs, and who were glad to teach us "green horns" what we needed to know when we thought we knew something when we did not.
A college degree has its place in some professions, but in all actuality only proves that people attended a school for 4+ years.
What is learned after that is what counts.

Answer 5

I think it depends more on what Americans are actually doing for a living. College education doesn't equal a better life. It just makes you book smart. I also think you should go back to school to brush up on your grammar, I could barely understand the end of your first sentence at first.

Answer 6

I think I appreciate my college education, but it doesn't make me a better person or even a smarter person. On the other hand procreating and the agrarian lifestyle sound pretty sweet.

Answer 7

A "college education" ceases to have any value at all if many more than 30% of any given population all have one...that's why a degree earned today is so much harder than one earned 30 years ago.

If everybody was able to get a degree, it would cease to mean anything!

Answer 8

You seem to like to judge others.my parents and i and my brothers have a university education.but were no better then a farmer who loves God.when you love God then that's the most important attribute i believe.

Answer 9
