What nobody likes to discuss is not everyone is college material. Whether these people rack up massive student debt or waste tax payer money and attend for free doesn't change that fact.
Somewhere along the line we created the narrative that it's better to be a middle manager making $50k a year than a plumber making $75k
Instead, how about we put money aside for free tuition at trade schools. There are plenty of blue collar middle class producing great income jobs available but they can't fill them.
