Anyway,

“People who have high intelligence and ambition often earn college and advanced degrees. Sometimes that formal education is important in their later success, but many say that their education had very little to do with it. Conversely, some extremely successful people dropped out of college or never attended at all. And as those ridiculous Occupy Wall Street protests taught us, huge numbers of college graduates are unemployed or employed only in jobs that don’t call for anything more than basic trainability.”

Also note:
Almost 6 million young Americans aged 16 to 24 are neither in school nor working, according to a new report by the Opportunity National Coalition.

You voted for this.

Idiot.

It's actually always been true, lol. You really think companies are hiring 22 year olds right out of college for professional level jobs? You need experience.

It has never been true.

You've never hired anyone.

Ever

It's hilarious how you focus on all the negatives. As if 16 to 24 year olds have ever had a high employment rate, lol. The data is obvious, education pays. It might not pay for a 22 year old and they might have to take a job out of their field to get experience, but in the long run, the data is obvious. Only real retards would try to spin their way out of the facts.

In a lot of cases, yes. Also, it is possible to gain experience before graduating with internships, jobs, etc...

Funny, but all sorts of companies hire law school grads, paralegals, engineers, and pharmacists right out of school.

For professional level jobs.

Look stupid: you don't know what the hell you're talking about. Your posts are a continued embarrassment and since you got presented with a fact you can not respond to, you've simply made a laughably stupid assertion.

So you can stop now.

Oh, and let's not forget the professional level jobs you can get with a computer science degree right out of Carnegie Mellon or MIT.

As a 22 year old.

It's hilarious how you use non stop logical fallacies to try to prove a point that doesn't exist. I use macro data to prove my points. Within that data there might be a group of young college kids who can't find jobs, or live with their parents, etc. But overall at all levels of the data, those who are educated perform better than those who are not. They have lower unemployment rates, higher pay, and more job opportunities.

Your argument is a very stupid argument, lol. As if 16-24 year olds are a good example of the rewards of higher education, lol.

It's hilarious how you use small sample sizes to try to prove how a very large sample size works. Of course there are some jobs that hire professionals right out of college, lol.

You are like the type of moron that gives an example of a kid you know that didn't go to college but made millions of dollars, therefore non being educated is better than being educated. That's how dumb you are.

I didn't say there is not a job or a field that doesn't hire kids out of college, lol. The way you argue is hilarious.

There is just so many variables. Where you went to school, what your degree was, how good your skills actually are, who you know, etc. That's why I'm using macro data as it shows a picture as a group. Within that group there is all kinds of different scenarios and anyone can make an argument about one of those small sample sizes that are not prospering because of their education. Like Acebb talking about 16-24 old unemployment rates as if that's a good argument for whether an education pays off or not, lol.

The fact that you think this responsive to anything speaks volumes.
