I agree with Alex we need more socialism in this country, it's a major problem that capitalism runs everything. A bit of capitalism does do good things, not everything has a price tag or a value. Were sitting at 1.3 trillion in student loan debt, and what do we have to show for it? A 18 year old who went to school for _______(Fill in your own blank) is now 25. This person can not find a job in the field they studied and winds up working for Target. There is something wrong there, it may be the fault of the student or it maybe a mix of the student and companies not willing to hire a person without experience. How is that fair, there is a lot of good talent wasted out there.
Yes and no, it still matters that no matter where someone ends up as far as job, they still should get the best education they can and they do deserve livable wages regardless. The stupid argument of "starter job" is garbage, who do they think works at those places while the teen or college student is in class?
There are always going to be enough people wanting to move up, and no, that is not saying a pay gap should not exist. But it still remains most people end up workers. The education IS STILL worth it because a better educated society bottom to top makes a more stable society.
