minus-squarecitrusfacelinkEnglish0•6 months agoGreat job setting up your strawman, how would you like to position him next?
minus-square@PriorityMotiflink0•6 months agoI wasn’t making an argument, just a factual statement. You’re welcome to infer from that whatever you wish.
minus-squarecitrusfacelinkEnglish0•6 months agoSo here’s where I am. I understand what you said was true, however, in my opinion it is not applicable to what was being discussed - ie attending college. Yes. You do not need to go to college to have a well paying job. However, there are jobs that do require college. Like being a doctor. Or molecular biologist. Or astronomer. Or engineer. Right? Those are valid jubs, just like the job you’ve mentioned. But just because you can get a job that doesn’t require a degree, doesn’t mean that jobs that do require a degree aren’t worth getting. And to get that degree - it costs too much money. That’s all I’m getting at.
