- jgalt212 10y agofair enough, but people need to make enough money to support their families and majoring in Art History is not the best first step towards those goals.
- bottled_poe 10y agoDisagree. If society believes that supporting families is an important social priority, it is up to the government to put in place the best policies to enable that to happen. 'Making money' is only one way to achieve that goal.
- jgalt212 10y agoI think deductibility of home mortgage interest highly correlates with that goal.
- lacampbell 10y agoI think you're reading too much into it. It was really a smartass comment about how people with degrees now do jobs that people who didn't even have high school diplomas used to do.
