Do more people forgo education today than did in the past?
- pchristensen 19y agoMore people go to college now than ever. It's getting easier to live comfortably if you're educated. If you're not, it's getting harder and harder.
- ivankirigin 19y agoEducated != went to college, I'm afraid. Economics professors would probably be mortified by the number of economics grads that don't bother reading the economist. Getting harder and harder if you didn't go to college? Have you ever been to a best buy? It's getting easier and easier for someone of meager standing to have an entertainment center that only the rich could afford two decades ago.
- ivankirigin 19y agoCollege today is a lot about entertain and fun. Huge student centers, little emphasis on the "boring hard parts". It is inevitable that standards decrease as more people go to college to meet the ridiculous college-education requirement of button-pushing jobs.
