<p>I think we’ve reached the point for a few people (obviously not most people but a few) where the benefits of a college education don’t justify the ridiculous cost. Think about the U.K. according to U.S. News and World Reports (judge it as much as you want it is a decent indicator of educational quality) World’s best university rankings 4 out of the top 10 Universities in the world are in the U.K… The tuition for any these four universities is less than half of the tuition of any of the other six universities (all American). And yet British students are having riots because of the cost increase of the British universities. It is understandable because not long ago they weren’t paying tuition at all but still the maximum any U.K. University is allowed to charge is around $14,300 (£9000). To some Americans it seems ridiculous to be forced into debt for years for an education when you aren’t even guaranteed to get a job when you graduate. And for a lot of Americans the cost of college isn’t really feasible without massive student loans unless you are fairly wealthy or very poor. </p>
<p>But I think I’ll take my chances with college and I’m fine with people thinking college is unnecessary because that’s less competition.</p>
