That there is almost no diversity at SCOTUS diagnosis the problem of Americas collapse.
This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.
Good meme.
OTOH, it's in our nation's best interests to maximize the potential of our citizens. While global corporations are cleaning up, American citizens have become less competitive. Cutting wages only hurts us. Advancing into new tech is the best way to compete in a technological world and maintaining an average or better standard of living.

That's why we should be putting more effort into alternatives to college. I remember reading a trade magazine for the machining industry some years ago. There was an article by a guy that was higher up in the Ridge Tool (Rigid tools is the commercial brand) corporation saying that the company went to high schools in the Illinois / Indiana area to try to recruit students into a apprenticeship program to become tool and die makers. This was back in the 90's. Ridge was offering at that time an excellent wage to learn then something like $75,000 (today that'd be like $125,000) a year when you completed the program. You got medical, retirement, and other benefits. It was a killer good deal and the students were turning it down because they wanted to go to college and supposedly make more money.
You can make great money doing something that doesn't require a degree, but we have an education system that says you need to go to college or you will end up with a crappy job.

Pretending like a degree in Gender or Ethnic studies is useful doesn't help, to mention two that are out there... It also doesn't help if someone gets a degree that is meritless. I would hold up Jill Biden's doctorate as an example of that. Her dissertation wasn't even worthy of a Master's candidate.
Rightys ignore that going to college broadens horizons. You take history classes, and literature classes and learn a lot. It makes you a more well-rounded person. College is not a glorified apprenticeship.
First, why do you give a shit?
Two, are you saying that Americans can't spend money on whatever education they like?
Lastly, people who demean a doctorate of education for teachers while praising Trump University strike me as either jealous and/or college dropouts.

Sure, Americans can spend their money on whatever education they want. I don't want them however to get to use public funds for getting a degree in stupidity. As for Trump University I never praised it and you are a liar and provocateur if you keep claiming I did. Also, I can and will demean people getting post graduate degrees that are based on bullshit like Jill Biden's is. My Master's thesis was 76 pages long with an extensive bibliography and notes on top of that on the history of electronic warfare in World War 2. It puts her doctorial dissertation to shame, and I did that Master's for fun more than anything else.
