  • So what I’m getting out of this is a couple points:

    • Births have been declining, meaning the student population has been declining.
    • College has gotten insanely expensive and unaffordable.
    • The job market no longer guarantees a good job just for having a degree.
    • Federal funding cuts to colleges have exacerbated the cost.
    • Young adults are re-evaluating whether the increasing cost of college is really worth the trouble.

    All this will lead to the college bubble finally bursting (it’s been coming for decades now). Top-heavy school administrations won’t cut their own budgets, so the bust will first harm teachers, students, and quality of education. We will ultimately have a less educated population, which will only further empower the fascists.
