You can parse this argument forever on what 'college' means vs trade school etc. But rather than be caught up with semantics,-- higher education, whatever and however you define or categorize it, is always the investment with the highest ROR.

It depends on the degree but you are more likely to get a good job if you have one.

The country will always need educated people: writers, scientists, mathematicians, musicians that no vocational school can educate.

It provides professional training that will last a lifetime. I completed my Bachelor's degree and Master's Degree and has served me well throughout my life in employed and personal growth.

I have NO respect for the "technical" people that come from college engineering schools. They are nothing but a bunch of overeducated techno-computer nerds who think they are better than the rest of us.

The only reason your Master's Degree serves you well is because society only "counts" formal education. Case in point with yes #1. I understand the need to ascertain that person can perform the duties of his or her chosen profession, but another demonstration could as easily suffice.

We do need law and order. I can't believe you would pick illegal criminals over the safety of Americans. Gavin Newsom Maxine Waters need to be arrested.

We need law and order in our country. The rioters are violent and most are in this country illegally.

His actions are a heavy-handed intrusion into a very localized event. Moreover, it’s the height of hypocrisy for him to claim he is putting down rebellion. We all remember the Jan. 6 attack in the Capitol and how he pardoned all those who had been convicted.

That is the states responsibility and the federal government should only come when ask.
