The tragedy for Marcin Lubowicki is not that he is an assistant manager at a McDonalds. It is that had he skipped college entirely, he would probably be a district manager by now, and much better off financially.


Right, because during the one life you have, it's better to concern yourself solely with climbing up higher financially rather than taking some time to learn about the world and study your passion. You're probably one of those types that believes that school is solely about preparation for the business world, no?

This anti-education bull**** is one of the main reasons I hesitate to call myself a Republican in public. And to think this used to be the party for intelligent people!




So your saying, the point of studying things like art and history isn't necessarily to prepare you for the business world and school shouldn't just be about improving yourself financially.

That's totally fine! And he's not disagreeing with that idea.

If your goal isn't financial, though, why are you shocked when you come out of school and your degree won't help you financially?

It's fine if you are learning and it's not for the purpose of getting a job. But.... when you can't get a good job and end up working at Mcdonalds, don't be surprised and call it a tragedy....
