** A free marketeer thinks you should not waste money educating the masses. You need to educate enough people to fuel the system. Any more would be a waste of money. If everyone graduated college, a degree would be cheap and meaningless. **

I actually think the above statement is a good thing. Do you think it’s a bad thing? Maybe we’ve hit on something here.

How do you decide who gets educated? The free market? Those with the ability and willingness to pay get the education?

Our current college education system is relatively free market.

You don’t even read the previous posts in the same thread before you start firing off questions, do you?
