"I heard that Obama is a snob for wanting everyone to be able to attend college."
How many politicians say that they don't want everyone to go to college? The everyone going to college them does bring up some interesting questions. Does everyone need to go to college? Has the product of a college education been watered down by the swelling number of graduates? That is, is a college degree really that impressive when everyone has one? Is the education gained at Harvard for 4 years (200k) really that much better than the education gained at UMass over 4 years (50k)? What's the difference between an unemployed graduate of secondary school and and unemployed graduate of college? Possibly a large debt. Is the debt worth it? Where is the career path guidance for students who do go to college? Is the outlook for employment for graduates of the English Literature program that strong?
