Do you find that this is unfair? Think on it.?

"Why is it that if one wants to become a successful lawyer, they must go through years of school to do so?"

You need to know the law that well, it's a job requirement when you need to save people from possibly dying. This is people's freedom and lives we're talking about. There are some jobs that really don't require that much expertise-- a CEO or manager or something. Any chimp with a pencil can get an MBA so long as they have the money. What I think is unfair is that it costs so much. That rich idiots get given legacy positions (Bush) when brilliant or even just above average poor people don't have that opportunity. It should cost 1/10 the price.

"even when it is very possible that that person cheated at some point in college"

Oh, give me a break with the jealousy.

Academic Institutions' main objective is supplying the society of a trained (ready made) manpower. Each college (field of interest) puts a program (subject/lectures) to accomplish the goal.

HR departments of the companies recruiting people find it quicker to read a "paper" written by a "respected college" declaring/certifying that the holder of this "paper" has passed necessary steps aiding him/her to fill the position. Other options are finding people from rival companies or training them.

1st question is who take over the responsibility of training the newly comers.

2nd question is to which extent colleges and recruiting companies seem in harmony for the collateral missions.

I am ready to testify that I worked in a field that relates slightly to my current career; the college period was a fun and irresponsible part of my life; above all theories are not applicable in most of the lived practical platforms (problem frequently is not the theories).

like he said its a Business. you can be super smart and super poor and you half a crap shoot of a chance at ever getting in. And i totally agree with the cheating part, half of these idiots couldn't tell you an eighth of the things they ""learned"" and most of it that they do remember will never be used for the rest of their live. quite sad that we stop measuring intelligence by simple standards and decided that degrees are much more important than True knowledge, especially knowledge of yourself but ill leave you with this ( from a two time college dropper) "College is not the place to go for ideas"

it is unfair to an extent. i would prefer more opportunities that involve apprenticeship or direct hands-on-learning. its apparent that the college degree is losing value... degrees are becoming as common as highschool diplomas were in the past. at this rate, in 50 years, it will be very difficult to secure any decent job without at least a bachelors. i dont see this as a sustainable trend.

The irony of life is ......

1) a degree/diploma is worthless if your parents are rich ;-p

2) it is the only ticket for the poor to become rich by getting a good job ;-p

Life is not fair so what is new ???

Well I repect ur views...but problem is that y those people suffer who have got their degrees after hardworking...so if people with degrees be equal with peoples without degrees then this is also unfair....

however i can understand that some talented peoples may not able to get their degrees due to any problem.....i admire & i have sympathy for them....

No one "struggles" to get into college. College is a business... if you are willing to pay them their money, they wont deny you the opportunity to do so.

If someone "lacks motivation" to go through college then they are simply unmotivated people... who dont care about their intelligence, qualifications or ability to function. Why should they be rewarded? Why would any employer want to hire them.

Yes I think its fair for the poorly educated to get poorer jobs.

Do you think its fair for those who do choose to get an education to NOT receive a benefit from it? What would be the purpose for anyone to go to school then if it got you in debt but didnt have a benefit? The way you want it is not fair.

You are biased though. You choose to see it as unfair because you dont want to get an education. Lazy people HATE being seen as lazy. Dumb people hate being seen as dumb. Unmotivated people hate being seen as unmotivated.

And your typical american lazy piece of crap wants to earn big bucks easy, with lottery tickets and get rich quick schemes and becoming corporate executives right after they drop out of high school... we have unemployment, too... because no one wants to try, no one wants to contribute, no one wants to be a benefit to others because it means putting in work. And everyone wants to rake in the cash for it.

Gandhi said something to the effect of: "wealth without work is detrimental to any economy"

i like the belief of equivalent rights, yet i do no longer think of meaning we ought to constantly be a similar in each way. i like our modifications, and that i'm happy we are attending to the backside of rights vs. mere ideas. i opt for the right to vote. yet i individually do no longer care if I certainly have the right to enhance a beard as a girl. i assume I do have the right, yet i think of i might nevertheless particularly no longer LOL. i think of adult men ensue to be the perpetrators of lots of this social stress. and that i do no longer think of that is totally unfair or unfounded and right here is why: You and that i, as women individuals, we don't care if a guy is eating an apple martini. yet there are various adult men available mocking one yet another for loss of what they planned to be masculinity in some adult men. that isn't the apple martini. those adult men in basic terms sense the martini guy is a few style of affront to their very very own version of manhood. Is there, in basic terms maybe, something female with regard to the guy eating the apple martini? because of the fact my husband ought to drink one and not be girly approximately it. What we certainly might desire to offer up doing is judging eachother -- anybody. no remember if he's drining a fruity drink or donning a skirt would not remember. What we are indignant via is the undeniable fact that he could be style of female, or gay, or leaning in that path. And that, my buddies, is no one's company. that is unfair to choose poeple in keeping with something yet their strikes.
