Polling college students/graduates demonstrates absolutely nothing other than the effectiveness of political indoctrination of higher education and our society’s incorrect tendency to try to associate credentialism with success when alternative forms of skills development become increasingly more lucrative

Also, obviously there existed “abortions” back to the cave man days. The reason I said MEDICAL abortions was to separate the constitutionality of those versus asking Bob to punch you in the stomach a few times as hard as he can

I care about the opinions of others beyond those that are now unemployed asking for daddy government to pay back the student loans they stupidly chose to take for lesbian dance theory and gender studies majors

Such as someone who learned a trade skill

There was a shift in the 90s from blue collar workers to white collar workers.

That shift royally screw up the productivity because we need more blue collar than white collar workers. But at the time they thought the new millennium would change everything and really not much changed.

Tradeskills are ALWAYS in demand and gurentee pay. We just need people to fill the role.
Skip college go to a trade school.

Societies like the Romans had medical abortions, at least medical in the sense of surgical procedure done by or under supervision of a doctor. They had dramatically higher risk than the modern equivalent and quite often resulted in permanent sterilization, but they had it.

------------------------

A not insignificant part of why certain trades like electricians maintain good rates of pay is because the trade guilds which control those professions deliberately maintain artificial scarcity. That being said, the entire notion that everyone should go to college has accomplished nothing except increase in debt loadings and devaluation of both high school and lower-end college degrees. It's clearly a mistake--a well-intentioned mistake, but a mistake nonetheless.

My issue with college is the number of young people who pick something that has no realistic application in the real world. They have no guarantee of work after they finish college which leads to the problem of college dept for an extended period of time. And it's not big daddy governments job to wipe the college dept clean basically saving these people from their own stupid choice.
