i think high schoolers should be taught which degrees do fucking what

Anyone who owes less than 30k in student loans, isn't going to want to socialize higher education because it would cost more than paying it off themselves... Assuming they have a brain

High schoolers should be taught something.

students truly think any degrees will put them in a better position than a plumber

It's already socialized @Putz

You learn almost nothing in highschool.

Public education as a whole should be mostly discarded or restructured.

my cousin that paid off 30k+ student loans in a few years said he should have become a plumber as soon as he looked at the numbers AFTER he graduated

You can blame parents for the quality of secondary education

I blame govt overreach more than the parents.

The parents are just as much a victim of bad parenting

and their parents are victims of bad politics.

i blame both

more on the govt though

but if parents gave a shit, govt would have to start changing stuff

could you imagine a student strike?

that would change things real quick

no students going to school for a month

Yeah but our culture has become fucked to the point that a large portion of parents don't care.

yea

The parents not getting involves in their kids education, you can government overreach all you want, but they aren't stopping parents from helping guide the schools

because of a lot of things

And they spread their filth exponentially to future generations

Owell, sounds like i won the debate, freezing interest is a dumb solution. Peace, i'm out. Ill keep an eye out for another interesting debate :)

Fortunately Gen Z is wising up to their insanity, but I don't know if it's enough to save us from the current trajectory.

You didn't win the debate.

We just stopped talking about it.

In the end no one wins.

Especially when the socialists take over.

Freezing interest won't stop socialism

Itll promote it

Boom, won the debate

Sure.

Because apparently all regulation is socialism.

Holy crap that was annoying to read.

This isn't to say @DJ_Anuz idea is good or not, but all 3 of you were doing a terrible job framing his argument (for the most part).

Being a responsible individual is always great, but we do also all live in a society, and this society always keeps telling people going to college is the best thing to do. Now after having listened to societies advice, and it doesn't work out well for said person, or becomes to much of a burden for them. Is there something we could do to fix this problem?
DJ: How about we freeze student interest loans after 10 years.
Society: No, you shouldn't have listened to us you loser. Its your own fault!

Is it the problem for the person who took on that loan? Yes, but our society told them it was a good idea, and at some point it will cost us one way or another to fix these things, its not just a "Sorry, its your own fault kid" problem.
I still don't know what i think about the idea (freezing student loans interest after 10 years), i kind of lean against it, but we still need idea's to fix these issues. Which yes will include individuals making better choices but that doesn't fix the problem many people already have, and will also need to work on fixing the mistakes society made/making (if possible) so they don't happen as often.

Society told me college was a good idea too

I looked at the numbers

And It didn't look like a very good idea

Society made it really clear that if I want to go *anywhere* in life I need to go to college

It's San Francisco so that's baked into our schooling
