[SWLUG] Utility of University study

[ilyan]

Gerald
It is as well to inform the young that it was worth having a degree when 
less than 5% of the population went to University, and a lot of those 
were so rich they were never going to compete in the jobs market.

Read up what Spinoza said.   or was it Descartes?

Bright people are likely to get sponsorships from the likes of IBM to go 
to get a useful degree at University followed by an assured job.   
Duller people will go into debt to get a degree to compete to work for a 
Corporation so driving  down wages.

Tregeles Price the Ironmaster finding  it expensive  to employ people 
who could read  and do sums, built a free school  in the village.   It 
was not long before he was able to stop  paying fancy wages to induce 
the literate to live there.

I do have a substatial contempt for Academics in Economics and Politics 
who have not seen the internal flaw in Marxism, nor understood (so the 
necessary taxes are not applied) how Keynes avoids the internal flaw in 
Capitalism.    I generally call for dogmatic Marxist bigots to be 
replaced by scientific Marxists.    I find none.

I go out of my way to kick the politically correct.   They 
hypocritically turn accurate descriptions into insults, and make ripe 
idiots of themselves misusing terms that are quite wrong for what they 
are describing.

Education has been reduced to indoctrination to make easy cogs to fit in 
the Capitalist machine.   Some people have an Educational CD that 
includes reliable books from the Plebs' League, and reliable teaching as 
put out by the CIA in "The Analysis of Intelligence".

I recommend that last book though it is widely hated by half baked 
Socialists.  I puzzle why there are so many of them when  Socialist 
ideas were brought fully baked into Wales in the 1880s.   To flower in 
"The Miners' Next Step" in 1912, and be sold out by half baked Trades 
Union Congress in 1926.
