Higher education at a high price
In America it has always been an article of faith that one should get a college degree. I have said for a decade that, due to liberal professors and a lack of competition or cost controls, traditional college no longer represents the value proposition it once did. Higher education charges tuition at twice the rate of inflation and is not responsible for the products it produces. Colleges are essentially a government monopoly. But since they are government, overseen by government, government lets them get away with little accountability.
Train wreck radio
Being a lifelong music fan and an occasional radio host, I’ve often baffled my family with my song selections. I believe that the driver of the vehicle controls the music. I’m the one who has to stay alert, right? So my lucky passengers have long been treated to my music choices. At first, it was a mix tape, aptly named. Later, I began “burning” random songs to compact discs. Now I create my own playlists, and play them directly from my phone into the car speakers.
