I mean yeah I agree. High school is a good place to learn adult skills. But it’s not been used for that in a long time.
I think college or tech school is still incredibly valuable.
I think people need more education than k-12.
If a job can be done by someone with a high school diploma only, it can be done by a machine or a computer.
Human minds are capable of so much more.
I genuinely believe most people are capable of being experts at something. Of being exceptional at something. But they don’t get the chance to find out what that is when higher education is unavailable to them.
I think most people need higher education past high school. It’s not just for specializing either.
It’s the skills of self discipline and using tools. Resources.
Navigating professional interactions. And of course, critical thinking which is something that needs to be fostered for longer periods of time.
This isn’t taught in k-12. It’s actually discouraged in k-12.
Talk to 18 year olds. They are practically babies. They can’t do anything. They need more time to develop.
Also you should question why people like the GOP and heritage foundation really really want to keep people from getting a higher education.
Dont align yourself with their agenda. There are very good reasons why restricting higher education will make us more easily manipulated and submissive.
There are reasons why higher education is related to being a socialist and in support of equality. And against fascism. And it’s not indoctrination.
