Too much education is a bad thing


Equal access is one thing, broader or universal access is quite another.

Colleges and universities expand to satisfy demand, and if that means radically watering down education or selling trivial voc-ed stuff and calling it “professionalizing” – there didn’t used to be schools of journalism, for example; hairdressing, next – they will do that.

A gigantic waste of national and personal resources.

Universal high school is already a waste.

Huge numbers of people are just killing time after they've learned to read at about the 5th grade level, say.
