The truth is elite colleges 🎓 are overpriced education, when there are much cheaper and better state schools available. Education shouldn’t be competitive, you should be able to buy it like you buy a pair of jeans 👖 at Wal-Mart. If you have money is piss away 💵 then do it but I think it’s better to pay for education with cash and get it done as cheaply as possible, gaining the necessary skills you need to be successful in your career.
"The sunrise in rural central Michigan reveals a landscape of neatly divided cornfields crossed by ditches and wooded creeks. But few of the sleepy teenagers on the school bus from Maple Valley Junior-Senior High School likely noticed this scene on their hour drive to Grand Rapids. They set out from their tiny school district of about 1,000 students, heading to the closest big city for a college recruiting fair. About 151 colleges and universities were waiting. The students, from Nashville and Vermontville, Mich., were going to the recruiters because few recruiters come to see them."
"The report starts with a number: $23 billion. According to EdBuild, that's how much more funding predominantly white school districts receive compared with districts that serve mostly students of color. "For every student enrolled, the average nonwhite school district receives $2,226 less than a white school district," the report says. EdBuild singles out 21 states — including California, New Jersey and New York — in which mostly white districts get more funding than districts composed primarily of students of color."
"Mr. America, walk on by your schools that do not teach
Mr. America, walk on by the minds that won't be reached
Mr. America try to hide the emptiness that's you inside
But once you find that the way you lied
And all the corny tricks you tried
Will not forestall the rising tide of HUNGRY FREAKS DADDY!"
