Three simple rules to avoid poverty:
1. Graduate high school
2. Don't have kids and get married until you're over 21
3. Get a full time job.

^dont be degenerate

For instance, I don't agree with employers taking advantage of disabled workers by paying them less

Well disabled workers are technically less productive, that's only natural.

discrimination laws exist

with so many people graduating college its become harder for those to get a good full time job

Yeah, that's the trouble

The college premium has been rising more than ever.

especially with the wages from companies growing

college is not as important as they would have u believe

Yep

The best way to prevent poverty is to go to college and get a STEM degree

Why I don't believe in free tuition

Or economics w/e

learn to weld

or how to lay brick

carpentry

A STEM degree basically guarantees you a high earning salary with the lowest unemployment chances

'Cus then everyone would flock to college when they would have been better served actually going into the world of work

Yep

a trade you mean?

That's my plan Sid

Free college doesn't necessarily mean higher graduation rates either.

Nope

i agree with that

yang never proposed a free college

Especially when you already have colleges lowering their standards to attract more students.

kids graduate grade 12 and are illiterate...what would 4 more years accomplish?

I think Germany is a good example of a national educational system that works for the majority @sɪᴅɪsɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀᴇ

maybe raise the standards for high school to a level where they are employable after

Even if you attend a trade school

make grade 12 great again

They still ensure their students have a blended curriculum

While you're learning a trade, you still receive lessons in English, politics etc.

high schools dont teach you how to pay for stuff or live on your own

I like that, as it ensures their students remain well rounded.

they treat it as a you problem

make grade 12 great again

If Yang had gone ahead with his UBI plan, it would be underfunded by roughly

it is up to your parents to teach you about personal finance

1 Trillion dollars.
