We were hearing Kaiser providers complain of workloads at least 10 years ago. Sad to see nothing has changed. Not surprising in the least.

I can only hope that this actually does something.

Intelligence when at such a high degree can often be more of an obstacle, especially when it comes to what some might call “street smarts.”

You might be surprised (maybe not) to learn inmates like this (at least in the US) are beaten and raped by their inmates constantly and usually have to try and PC up to get away from it. Some nasty people are in prison, and they don’t seem to like pedophiles and child rapists at all.

Not for nothing, but in the US, the pedophiles that end up in the prison system are very likely to experience hell on earth as the other inmates will certainly not be a fan of theirs. It’s like some criminal pecking order. I have no idea if that’s a thing outside the US, but maybe…

Another benefit I enjoy from a community college is the smaller class sizes (relative to a university) when taking these core classes.

As an individual returning to school after working for 15 years, a community college was on my list with online schools (they also have an online community college, of course) as the price of it is much lower than a university. If it were free for younger folks, that would be an incredible incentive to learn a trade.

Where I live (N. Colorado), a community college’s cost can get rather steep. If you take eight credit hours, you could pay $1500+ just for the classes, and you may buy books. That’s a typical out-of-pocket for a local school here, so you may get a grant, program, or scholarship to help you, but yeah, it’s hard…

Thx for the Jeopardy knowledge, Smeagol!

I’ll take “examples of adult tantrums” for $100, Alex!

That’s right… Zuckerberg and Bezos have a scrub team they send around once a quarter to keep the internet shiny…

Corrected Bezos, it’s a z.

Especially when you have Ivy League schools that could spend a million dollars a year on dorms and still make profits from the donations they receive.

So many Universities have become a booming business, making me want to throw up. Knowledge is crucial. Putting it behind a giant paywall that keeps growing for its own selfish needs is a means of control.

Note that I’m not talking about every single college in the world. I’m just referring to a big problem with a lot of them.

Sincerely, A college student
