Not everyone should go to college, the reason why college degrees and now grad degrees have cheapened in value is because this country pushed everyone to go to college instead of making a pain for fair wages.
People with college/grad degrees, stop refusing to see and acknowledge that you are impacted most when the poor don't get fair wages for employment and everyone is pushed into college, this directly affects your class position as well.
All jobs deserve a fair wage... for that kind of a job.
What exactly is that supposed to mean? Are you suggesting that some jobs should pay more than others? Because that is basically the very root of income disparity itself. All work is honorable. All workers are equal. But if some workers are still earning more than others, we will never achieve true equality. It’s very discouraging that people still do not get this.
Americans should be able to raise a family on burger flipping if that is what they choose to do, that is what fair wages mean. Not too long ago, this was happening.

Then let's all flip burgers. Why should we do any extra work?
Maybe we should just get paid for doing nothing if that's what we choose to do?
