Through out my personal educational experience, in my opinion, I came to the conclusion that the schooling system in the United States is a rip off and extremely over priced. Although many will disagree with my opinion, here's why I think that... First off I continued my education after high school in 2014. For the past three years I really cannot say I learned something that changed my life that I will always need and use. But then again this is my 4th year in school and I'm looking at about 7 more years. Most likely somewhere in the next years, I will stumble across a new learning experience.
Now, after reading Doug Ducey's thoughts about the toughest of why Arizona needs more college grads, I would not necessarily say I disagree with him. Yes, I still believe its a rip off and a big growing business, but I also still agree with him.
"Earning a certificate or degree, or both, after high school opens the door to countless economic opportunities". I defiantly believe that education equals opportunity today. With so many jobs out there, and a percentage amount of people graduation, of course the person with a degree or certification is most likely to find a job and be a better qualified candidate.
I defiantly agree with his statement, "The reality is that educated households have better long-term financial stability". Its true! Not necessarily for everyone, but for the majority yes it is.
Do I agree with what will happen is we reach 60%? Yeas and no. I think it would be ideal and good for the economy and people, but I dont necessarily think it would be so easy. There is always a possibility, but then again 60% is a lot of people! That is a huge chunk of Arizona's population.
All in all, I think he has really good intentions and wants to best for Arizona and it's economy.
