College is kind of a scam, though. A necessary evil in scam form, and it didn't always start out that way, but think about it. The translation is: "You want a job that doesn't involve flipping burgers and frying fries? Better come get this piece of paper!" It's less about the "education" you receive and it's more about that piece of paper. It's racket-ish because the price only goes up year after year, and with more people graduating that piece of paper is actually worth less and less in the end. I also think it's racket-ish because it's drilled into every kid who goes to school now's mind that "you're getting the free stuff now but ultimately you're gonna have to go somewhere else for the final four years (at least) and THAT will cost you. Pick well!" The fact is, not every kid who goes to college should be going there. There needs to be an increased priority placed on trade schools and trades in general, again, lest we end up having the smartest yet most useless body of people in the entire world in about two decades.
