Re: Progress??
Something else about "progress" that is bothering me is higher education. I am not at all opposed to higher education. In some instances I am definately for it! What I am talking about is how certain jobs are being buttoned up unless you have a degree. Take my husband for instance. He is in business management and is there by experience. He has 20 years experience and some places will still hire him without a degree. But more and more places are saying you have to have a degree or they won't even look at you. What is wrong with this picture? Also, the job I used to do in a smaller town, I am no longer qualified to do because I do not have more college behind my belt. It does not matter what college I have as far as subject. There is just a certain amount required...it can be in underwater basket weaving. So, an underwater basket weaver is qualified but I, who have experience, am not.
I find it ironic that liberals, who mostly run colleges, who are supposed to be so "compassionate" towards poverty are getting these jobs all buttoned up so you must have a degree to get them.
