Whose responsibility is it?

• emodendroket 9y ago
  Education is a social good and should be funded at least in large part by the state, is my stance. I think the framework of "investment" and "consumers" is a totally wrong one to look at it in.

    I agree with you that it "should be", but the fact remains that currently isn't. "Investment" and "Consumer" might be tainted words for you but they are accurate descriptions for our current system. So shouldn't students make their massive life decisions based on the current reality of the education system rather than some imaginary future-state thats more "fair"?

      Perhaps, but it doesn't follow that it's necessary or unavoidable to write screeds about how anyone who ends up in a bad situation is to blame because they didn't pick the right major.
