When everybody has the same degree it becomes worthless. See high school diploma.

A college degree is now the high school diploma of my youth.  Better off learning a trade so you can get a nice paycheck.

Great points he brought up. Sadly she's no different then the majority of our population. All this free stuff but who's going to pay for it?

I like the part at the end when he pointed out, if tuition was free the price of it will skyrocket because nobody will care about the price.

Ever go to a store in a poor area where most of its customers pay with food stamps and ebt cards. The prices are all jacked up because those people don't care about the price.

It's Generation Nothingness, not nothing.  Please correct thread title.

No longer providing subsidised loans for fluff degrees would be a good start.  Study Art History all you want, just do it on your own dime. 

Would also steer college students towards marketable degrees with actual job prospects.

When its free, let me know. I have 2 kids in college at once, I'm paying their full tuitions.
If we were illegals or poor, maybe we'd go for free or on a massive discount.

I guess it pays to be a loser/drain on society...

This is one of the biggest problems. Saying college doesn't mean much, it really depends on the degree. Look at any colleges program of studies and about half the majors there is no job market for. That's a waste of money. There is still good value in majors that have a place in the market place.

Why should anyone that wishes to be a biologist or chemist or anything else have to spend 4 years paying for bullshit that will have nothing to do with what they want to do. That's bullshit and just a way to draw out school to get more money.  It's a crock of shit.  You shouldn't have to be in debt to learn.  This was set up this way on purpose to make you a slave...

You should have to pay but you shouldn't have to pay what we here in America pay.  You're paying for indoctrination in many cases.
