Let me make a slippery conclusion that
colleges are expensive day care centres
where
19-25 year olds are kept before they graduate with inflated egos that they are above diploma holders even as they join the masses to be underpaid employees with impressive sounding but hollow job titles to camouflage their being exploited to make the rich richer
based on flimsy arguments that
1. 80% of the self-made billionaires in Forbes' Top Ten Richest Persons are college drop outs, and
2. most of the college graduates I know, and don't know, concur that only two hours out of the 2,000 hours or so of lecture/tutorial time spread over four years are applicable to life after college.
This is an almighty long statement. Microsoft Word would never approve of this.
