RE: #STWT Show 30! Ask Me Anything Steemit Post!

How's it going Titus?

I was finally able to watch last week's show and I just wanted to touch on your rant about college. Let me start by saying I completely agree with you on just about every level. I was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska and went to college here. I had many professors spew liberal bullshit and I could see many people on campus being brainwashed. Having said that, I became more of a critical thinker because I was able to look past their "real socialism has never been tried" arguments as well as divide and conquer race-baiting speeches and form my own opinion based on my own life experiences.

I worked many jobs in manual labor and manufacturing in order to pay for college and I learned more working next to and speaking to people of different races and backgrounds than I ever would have in a classroom with a liberal professor facilitating the discussion.

I guess what I am trying to say is that college can be a great experience if you go into a field that is in high demand. I went into education because I know that there is a high demand for teachers as opposed to getting a women's studies degree and not knowing what the hell I would do with my degree once I am done.

When others ask me for advice, I often tell them that yes, in some ways, college can be useless, but if you select a field that is in high demand, it can be very useful. I also encourage them to learn a trade because that way, they can avoid all of the brainwashing and debt that a university can bring if you are unsure of your future.

Also, just wanted to say thanks for posting that video on how to build a following on steemit. I plan on watching that and being more active on this platform. Hopefully I can join you for a live stream sometime and we can celebrate the (hopefully impending) arrests of the Podesta's, the Clinton's, Alefantis etc. I hope that I am not getting my hope's up only to be disappointed again...

Thanks again and take care.

Best regards to your fiancé and child.
