As someone who went to a University with expectations of going into a career in my field, I tell everyone that college is great to 1) Network with other people, 2) learn how to think for yourself and 3) learn different perspectives and methods.

Information is out there but you need to know how, when, and where to use it. If you don’t have experience, a college degree shows an employer that you are committed and can follow through.

Should it cost $100k? Heck no but just like everything else, organizations get greedy. Just my 2 cents.

    I respect these people more. Not because of who they voted for but because they aren’t ‘Always Vote Blue/Red’. People don’t get that career politician are there to help themselves first. DONT VOTE FOR THE PARTY, VOTE FOR THE PERSON.

    Are the recipients or hospital going to pay for my funeral? If no, they can get bent. As someone who works in the admin side of healthcare, it’s just Take, take, take from all sides.

    Actually my employer does pay for dental and vision. They used to offer medical but like with everything, they decided employees should pay a percentage of it but it’s too expensive just to have it for checkups

    I’ve had insurance through my employers since I was 18 years old. For the first time in my life I opted out since it was cheaper to pay out of pocket than pay the premiums for my entire family. The worst part is I work for a healthcare organization making almost 3 times the national average.

    Watch the republican and democrat party join together in the next decade to this new way of thinking. That’s what happened in Mexico when PRI and PAN were mortal enemies but when a new party threatened their power, they decided to join forces.
