this but you also have to have affordable education because it's the most reliable, predictable and virtuous of all class mobility mechanisms, and trade school don't provide that for the most part because those are optimized to make corporate drones, not self thinking individuals
I'm pretty sure any competent welder and machinist running a small business custom-fabricating high performance automotive parts (or a similar field, like oil pipelines) would take umbrage with your description of their profession as "corporate drones who aren't self-thinking".
exceptions exists everywhere, do I have to introduce a disclaimer for the 1% of everything or can we have a discussion of the general case without people having to nitpick every word?
You must understand that we’re talking about trade school as an alternative to college, so if you point out some stunning detractor toward trade school, you’re implying the detractor does not exist for the alternative.
Maybe I took that implication to an extreme end, but calling out trade schools for producing “corporate drones” absolutely bears the implication that you believe the alternatives are different / not as bad.
> you’re implying the detractor does not exist for the alternative.
no? what kind of crazy dichotomic logic is that? you're way overthinking it.
> Do you think 99% of people who go to college
moreover college output has a lot more variation than trade school output, so assuming that the proportions of outcome are the same is as well something that was never claimed.
> You must understand
you just dropping things I never said and argue as if I said them, how does one go and debate or understand that? it was never my point to begin with!
jesus, 6 post ago I made one point: trade school aren't providing the titles one would go get to optimize for class mobility, heck, the rest isn't even a point of discussion really, the whole idea on which trade school are based on is to bake blue collar workers.
