All the data says graduating college is better than not, no matter what.


I would look very hard at what groups are producing that data, and what biases they may have / what they represent.

I agree with you that is objectively incorrect. And I believe it comes in the form of increased career earnings potential.

A plant baw operator, who gets the job at 19, will likely be earning more at 23 than the recent college graduate. However, over time, the recent college graduate, assuming they are in a in-demand field, will have significant earnings growth, while the baw will always make roughly the same amount of money.

Not to mention, the college educated kid is likely working in a safer environment.
