Implying 'higher' education isn't just a cunning trick deployed by the 1% to turn the neo working-class into severely indebted opinionless worker drones.

Implying i'm not a member of the self taught, entrepreneurial/inventor master-race.

You have the internet and a computer, why haven't you joined the latter yet?

Because I lack creativity, not overall, but in the sense that I am very bad at considering what consumers want, since I am myself so different than the typical consumer.

Yeah I was there at the secret 1% club meeting that took place inside of a volcano on an uncharted island. All of those dastardly 1%ers unanimously agreed to do this to you. Then they all laughed about it together in unison. It was so evil.

we aren't indoctrinated into the 1%, that would be silly.

what happens is you don't get wealthy without first understanding some things about your fellow humans.

primarily that they're stupid, weak and blind.

once you've understood that and exploited it you're in a position to do even greater things.

Seriously if owned a company I would start stealing the cream of the crop straight out of highschool and have my people train them. Offer them good money and save them from paying for school.

It sucks and you should turn of your computer, sit on the floor meditating over your live a while, and really come to a conclusion about yourself.

no you wouldn't.
if you owned a company you'd be the actual cream of the crop and you'd know that about 95% of the supposed cream of the crop will never do anything of interest and aren't worth training.

I didn't say that don't put words in my mouth.

However, if you can't accumulate at least a certain amount in this information age, you're either super lazy or a complete aspie and/or retard.

If you're truly smart and offer real value to the world, the money should come no matter what you do.

Whether I enjoy my life is insignificant. My own well-being is insignificant, and should not factor into my decision making. What is really significant is propositional knowledge. If I don't contribute to mathematics, science, or (analytic) philosophy sometime during my life, then it would have been better that I hadn't lived. And that's the crux of it. Discover or die, nothing else matters.

funny stuff.

but what you'll learn is that your reasoning and priorities matter only within a very narrow context, and while you cannot now imagine that context changing, it is doomed to do so.

your legacy and the fate of humanity means exactly shit when you're losing your house or wrecking your car or pissing your diaper after having your prostate removed.

life happens.

the price reflects the demand

so many people bought college that now you can't compete if you don't have it.

a good situation for colleges, they now hold a necessary resource.

so you think grants for weapons and tech development go only to universities?

boeing university, lockheed martin college?

any marketable research can be done by any private company. Much of it is done with government grants.

ironically I did attend cc, though I last published over a decade ago.
