FAILED 'HIGHER' ED … AT TAXPAYERS' EXPENSE

Exclusive: Craige McMillan explains real reason firms hire foreign tech workers

It’s becoming difficult to continue viewing “higher” education in America as a public good. “Berzerkley” is a prime example. It is by far not the only one.

Obama, the Indonesian-Hawaiian-Kenyan community organizer and former United States president, before he joined the 1-percenters, was well on his way to “forgiving” student loans – at least for the borrowers. Taxpayers, many of whom never attended college and work at low-paying jobs in the Obama economy, would have repaid them instead.

Here’s an article from the Atlantic about the student loan corporate nexus that explains who really gets that money.

Higher education in America today is largely a sham and a disgrace. The real reason the Face/Twit/Goo monopoly want to hire foreign engineers is because we don’t produce them here. 

The curriculum is hard. The facts demand respect and won’t be mutated into shades of your personal feelings. 

Most of the people admitted to “higher” education simply can’t do the work, come out the other end and be useful to society or themselves. 

So why are they there? Are they simply convenient cannon-fodder for the educatist-state?

The few students admitted to “higher” ed who could do the work for an engineering degree look at the depressed paychecks, the loans needed to complete the program, and don’t bother. 

Why should they? Hey, Big-Tech: You broke it. You’re as wealthy as the world combined. You fix it.

The Atlantic’s 2012 article indicates the federal government (that be us) spends $65 billion dollars a year on “higher” education. Now add to that $65 billion another $100 billion in subsidized student loans.

What, precisely, do Americans get for this generosity?

• Students who don’t know if they are male or female, but whatever they are, they are mad as hell about it.
• Students so uneducated and unable to process ideas that they are incapable of participating in, let alone contributing to, the great intellectual debates of our times.
• Students who, because they are incompetent and because they are egged on by their “professors,” resort to violence against those they disagree with, in an attempt to silence arguments they cannot confront and counter intellectually.

The $165 billion a year subsidy to “higher” ed is by no means the whole picture, either. 

“Higher” ed bids up the price of “superstar” researchers, whom they call professors (but who rarely teach classes) because they can tap into – wait for it – more federal money! 

Federal research dollars pour into big universities because, well, where else are the researchers who can conduct credible studies on, say, global warming – the biggest cash cow in leftist history?

Of course, if you call outright fabrication of research data and findings so misleading and sometimes outright false that they get pulled from scientific journals … oh wait, that doesn’t matter. 

Those “studies” are there to move public opinion, not scientific opinion. You give us the money, and we will use it to euthanize your culture and society. You owe us! 

Now pay up, you dirty, stinking filthy American citizen!

As the Atlantic article indicates, the primary beneficiary of all this taxpayer generosity is the universal university bureaucracy. Big schools adjust their tuition to maximize the amount of federal dollars they can appropriate from their students each year. Students graduate as technicians if they are lucky, and the criminally insane if they are not.

But have they learned how to think? Not a chance. 

The entire university culture is opposed to thinking. 

Thinking students would wonder why the university bureaucracy grows so fast, why their professors get such big paychecks but teach hardly any classes, and why students who go on to became graduate students get the shaft for so many years before they, too, are eaten up and spit out by the administrators.

“Higher” education in America is higher than the surrounding terrain only if you puff early and puff often. Be sure to keep that THC content in your blood and organs at a high enough level to make it through graduation, which the university secretly defines as that point at which you can no longer be milked by the bureaucrats for another dollar. 

Then take your diploma, your student loans, find a job in alternative sexual lifestyle bathroom design, and count your blessings that you didn’t skip this important phase of your life.

My comments: America has No Future as long as so called, "Higher Education," is in its present condition.
