I watch several of my friends that I grew up with either still in school or recently graduated with mounds of debt and going-nowhere jobs, and I find myself glad that I stumbled into a trade. College educations are becoming increasingly worthless, but there will always be a need for decent tradesmen.
I'm a semester away from getting my associate arts degree and had been planning on continuing to university for my BA in CRJ so I could make a career out of law enforcement, but now I'm not so sure because I've been hearing even guys with a combat mos military background with college are having a hard time even getting past the interviews at many law enforcement areas in CO because of the high amount of applications and guys with LEO experience and already POST certified. I've been moving to the fence to finishing my A.A and using the rest of my G.I Bill in some sort of trade school. Advice? thoughts?
Everyone wants to be on the government payroll yet we all want smaller government, interesting how that works.
I disagree with what you're saying here, but let me pose this question to you. Would you rather be taking a paycheck from the government or be indebted to it for the largest portion of your adult life (i.e. student loan debt)?Quote:

People complain about high taxes and having to borrow 70 cent of every dollar our government spends and then they want to get on the payroll. We might as well all sign up to work for the government and they can just give us a weekly allowance, But I guess that would be a little like communism, and we can all see how well that worked out.
