People keep pushing this free college nonsense, so you want to make an already worthless piece of paper even more so?

Aside from the medical field, there is NOTHING you can learn in college that you cant learn from YouTube, not a goddamn thing

Americans are taught from birth to only care about work. It's sad. If all you want to do with your life is work, you should be dropping out of school and getting a job as quickly as possible. Higher education should be for people who actually enjoy learning.

Law- what can you learn in law school that you cant learn from the millions of law books out there?

Finance- The degree that says I wasted $200,000 and still cant get a job

Education- I learned more from the people teaching on YouTube than high school and college combined

Politics- Any moron can be a politician, look at the American Goverment, I think if you combined all their IQ points youd have the same amount of intelligence as a shoelace

Space- I love space, but you dont need a degree to be an astronaut
