Dr Sowell is a National Treasure

Cheap demagogue

I agree. University is a young adult daycare. It is not worth the expense.

Sowell is one of the two or three people in this world that I would love to meet. I am a fan.

A college education used to be viewed as a necessary requirement for most white collar jobs. The majors and classes were geared to provide the information needed for the job requirements to start. Now majors are being provided almost as entertainment, because kids today are taking classes / majors that have zero job opportunities outside of academia. There is no critical thought given to actual preparation for adult life and career by the student. The Universities and Collages are happy as it means money for them. It is a truly caveat emptor situation.

You mean like having a degree in " Gender Studies " ?

When I see a Thomas Sowell video I click, 1st things 1st

What an intelligent and honorable man.

An education can be counterproductive, so has to be gauged.

Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach. My father graduated with an engineering degree, even though he sold cars for 35 years. The one class he failed in college was salesmanship.

1:40 I would argue health care has also risen exponentially, and for the same reason. George Noory from Coast to Coast found his hospital bill from being born in 1950, it was $50 cash. Now it costs $20,000 or more, and a large portion of births are paid for by the government. If all doctor bills were cash, and insurance were outlawed, healthcare would be much cheaper.

I don’t think I ever read a book or article written by a professor after I graduated. I read things by people actually on the profession. Real people with real jobs. Those who can, do. Those who can’t, teach.

Since there is no subject as : “The wisdom of life”. . Wise Dr.Sowell doesn’t have one

I love him comparing colleges to making bacon, so apt.

Tuition is high because the government guarantees the student loans.

If their education is of such great value, then why do they pay the teachers so little. I was never paid even half of what the schools told the students they would earn with the degree I had in order to teach.

I believe the real goal here is to create a situation where the cost is so outrageous that only the government can afford the bill. Then in the name of cost consciousness, the government will limit how many people that go to college since they are paying the bill. The government will also decide which colleges you may attend. They will ultimately decide what you must major in, controlling the number of graduates in each field. In the end, the government will own you because they financed your education and if you don't play ball, the government will deny your children a college education in the name of some equity policy. But it is actually just retribution for not doing what you're told.

Whatever the government subsidizes will proliferate? What a concept. Require a student--or their parents--to access the lending market for tuition money and watch the price of a secondary education plummet.

👍

What year was this recorded in? Seems like at least 20 years ago and is even more true today, with Biden wanting to have the taxpayers paying for the past costs.

How much do these colleges have in their endowments?

Makes sense

Doesn't make sense does it. It does from that view, but it suppose to be about education just proof thy don't give a shit about people. It's money and keeping you dependant on them. Control!

Still no explanation.

of what?

No English teacher pro professor could EVER work at Intel!!! ...no skills, no critical thinking capabilities, nor any common sense! ...how does this guy think that they could work at any major tech firm or other company???

Kings, queens, ceasars of the world supported research from the dawn of time. Students should study, taxpayers should pay. That’s one of best application of tax dollars

Has the interviewer met an English teacher?
