We're obviously talking about higher education here. We all agree basic functioning citizens need 12 years of education. Educational attainment beyond that varies depending on occupation requirements and personal interest.
- vkou 8y agoGiven the problems that people without post-secondary degrees face, I don't think it's a stretch to say that productive, functioning citizens need 12 + ??? years of education. For every example you give of a successful college dropout, I can give an example of a successful person who only forced themselves to slog through 12 years of schooling for the sake of social signaling, and not running afoul of truancy laws.
