This talk of free college in this election has been really upsetting to me. It's a huge waste of money and time for millions of more kids to get worthless college degrees. Nobody benefits but the professors and administrators of universities. And degree inflation creates a perverse situation for the sane people who don't want to spend four years of their life getting a college degree to be an administrative assistant.
College shouldn't be the default. It should be an option society encourages only for the very few fields that require four years of dedicated academic study.
