The college system needs to be reformed. How it’s funded needs to be changed what a college major looks like needs to change and we’re really missing an apprenticeship period after or during high school. More trades, less pointless college majors. Colleges compensation should come from students first five years of income post school so they’d have to produce students that are capable of getting or creating jobs.
Apprenticeships are an important part of whats missing in education. Like when someone goes to the seminary, it helps you to discern if a career is for you so you dont waste 4-5 years of college on it and you walk away with skills or a career
Our modern education system comes from Austria-Hungry who’s purpose was creating soldiers, then was very influenced by the Industrial Revolution that really needed workers; It also doesn’t create entrepreneurs that make the world go round. No entrepreneurs, no jobs to get.
solving eduction is a big part of fixing the country and if you ask James Lindsay its also whats churning out Marxist Ideologues too.

In addition, nearly 1 in 5 graduates are still working in a career that does not require a degree ten years after graduation.It was also found that business majors have a 47% and education majors have a 50% chance of being underemployed, whereas engineering majors only have a 29% chance and computer science majors only have a 30% chance of being underemployed.
