[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think Bill Maher’s opinion became irrelevant a really long time ago.[/quote]

Bill Maher talks about a lot of uncomfortable topics that is increasingly upsetting the progressive left because his questions are honest and direct.

The college degree situation is a perfect example. It's a scam - to the extent that most people don't need college degrees for the work they do. Yet it's required and it's very difficult to get hired without a degree, especially at the onset of a career.

I won't say getting a college degree is a huge scam but it is greatly overrated for many circumstances and it's unfortunate we have a society that puts pressure on getting a college degree rather than work experience and training as many younger people would benefit better from going directly into the workforce through training programs and paying internships rather than wasting money and time on near pointless degrees.

Another element of college degrees becoming less valued is the increase in the range of soft topics offered for degrees. [/quote]
