Back in the mid-1990s I hired programmers with AA degrees (those are two
year degrees) who were probably better than the idiots they are
graduating nowadays (I've been spending hours sorting out stupid bugs
that the kiddies at Google created with their latest and greatest).
It's hard to get through the morons who run our academic institutions
and the morons with way too much money who want cheap but golden goose
laying tech people that tech is like music or any other art. You need
to have a knack (talent) for it. Just knowing theory and languages
won't do. That's why about 90% of the graduates in the field will fail
and be flipping burgers or making lattes soon or trying to live off mom
and dad.
Also many of their damn professors often never worked a real tech job
and could only teach theory. Some schools actually had some teachers
with experience (but often no degree) but decided they needed ones with
impressive letters behind their names. So they got rid of the folks who
could really teach students something and replaced them lettered
idiots. Upside down world.
When I went to college my music professors were skilled performers and
had worked in the real world. Some didn't even have degrees but
experience that really counted.
Our educational system is totally bullshit.

The reason millennials are living in their parents basement is because
Bill Clinton caused the 2008 recession. Under Obama, the U.S. economy
for the average worker has not improved and very few new jobs ha! ve
been created.
There is no "debt-free" college. You already know this.

Non sequitur. You really don't want to see a list of the insults Trump
has spewed during this campaign.
(And BTW, "living in their parents' basement" wasn't an insult. It was
sympathy for the situation of millennials who had gone to college and
then couldn't get jobs. But you knew that.)

Yes, and Kaine was accused of being insulting at one point by Pence
because Kaine had simply repeated Trump's own words. It's like Pence
didn't realize what crap issues from his running mate's mouth all
these months - he didn't recognize the language or the well-known
quotes. Of course he did, but it was another of his lies and attempts
to deflect. Pence is the perfect VP pick for T.rump as his appeal to
the other smarmy, conservatives in his party is assured.

FARMVILLE, Va. (AP) -- Democrat Tim Kaine aggressively challenged
Republican Mike Pence over a long list of Donald Trump's controversial
positions and statements Tuesday night, drawing a vigorous defense of
Trump's tax history.
