    Jesus christ, this is what unaffordable education does to people. For fucks sake. I mean it’s only fitting for a population that can’t figure out that someone advertising a 1/3lb burger and directly comparing it to the competition 1/4lb, bragging about the price being the same, might indicate that 1/3lb is more despite 3 being a smaller number. What a combination, people that belive their thoughts are the only source of truth while having no clue what they’re talking about.

        Fucking barely. American public schools suck, any school worth a damn in the states will put you in crippling debt. In other words not worth a damn again to most people.

        I double checked if there actually are any good free schools and especially free collages. Turns out yes, there are some, but it’s definitely not the norm.

          Coursera and edx provide a full education on a wide array of topics, and a lot of the liberal arts and sciences are considered so valueless that there’s free information everywhere.

          As for public schools, some are indeed garbage but a lot are fine. Unfortunate luck of the draw just like everything else.

          Learning is more about wanting to learn.
