RE: Indian Giver?
I don't think college is the new apprenticeship. I think becoming an apprentice is wiser than attending a college. At the very least one could learn the terrain and see if they like it before deciding whether or not to go to school and get certified for this or that. In many cases you are correct, they're straight up teaching disinformation, propaganda, and false ideas. I think we may be on the same page on this topic.
Long ago, in the before time... like only 50 years ago.
Parents paid for the apprenticeship of their children.
They apprenticed their child to someone who knew the trade. And thus, the child learned the trade.
The reason the parents paid, is that the child was a loss, a burden on any company. It cost more to have the child around. And all the parts they break, and stuff they screw up.
But, it was no where as costly as college. Especially today.
Fortunately, we have ThemTube, where you can learn to do most of the things you would really want to do.
Just wanted to make clear that apprenticeship was not no-cost.
The before time, I like that. Thanks for the info!
