How pleasant is it to hear that some people frown on college? The people who share your opinion are not competing for the same kind of employment I'm aiming for that requires college. Gerald Celente (anti-college) acknowledged that the field I'm working on right now is a good one, so I'm not worried about becoming unemployed. Those who do fail after graduating are in the minority, and my debt will be 20-25k after graduating, which is not six figures like other graduates.

You're wrong. If the high school drop out has a brain and can learn a job or some skill and costs peanuts compared to the ego degree holder, the high school drop out has more chances. These days, companies look to save cash and get their work done.

Getting a degree in itself does not guarantee employment. However, it opens doors that otherwise would have been closed to a high school graduate/dropout.

If my intention is to find a job in an academic circle, or a think tank, how am I supposed to increase my credentials with an "on the job experience," when the job I'm looking for is precisely the one that can give me the experience? You need a Master's degree, there's no way around it. If you have nothing on paper, or grades that demonstrate an academic achievement, you can't take high paying jobs.You can follow Peter's advice if you're looking for Mcjobs, but sadly nothing more.Sad, but true.

that's true again but try to think it in decades leaders come and go good ones bad ones ,again a penny today in exports in decades can turn in a dollar of industry so short term yes you can find a lot of other problems and the development will be extremly low but in decades you can find a clear pattern ,again not all countries all the time can have bad goverments ,man look at the world 1 billion is developed, 1 developing 4 underdeveloped and 1 still lives in trees .

I just got out of the military and was a sys. admin. for 4 years while I was in. I just recently got out and found a job as a sys. admin. within 1 week of job searching. My mom keeps telling me to attend college, so I just showed her this video. Thank you Peter.

but the reason they cant compete is because they have corrupt goverments owned by the west dont allow for policies to compete.. It's nothing to do with the subsidy..

They won't have a choice in the matter. I foresee oil breaking $150 a barrel before next year. Unless that price increase is the result of price manipulation, or more devaluation of the dollar via inflation, shipping costs will abort the cost differential of manufacturing abroad. As I see it, the price increase will be the result of loss or blockage of oil production (war with Iran), a glitch in the game you can't cover up with monetary manipulation!

Aww come on, if we didn't do that than mulch-nationals like Monsanto couldn't buy those countries arable land for 10th cents on the dollar and evict all of those worthless peasant-farmers! Besides if the wealth of a country is developed by it's citizenry's labor, then they can't be corrupted to bow to the will of said mufti-nationals....and we just can't have that here on Earth any more!
