I am not a conservative wtf... my body of work speaks for itself. What are you basing this clown take on?

they don’t speak to the qualitative benefit of educating a population.

This is benefit in the room with us right now?

All I see is increasingly improvised and indebted population, working longer hours, getting less benefits... people are not forming families. People can't afford rent.

Now show me this benefit you are talking about, dear!

What is the qualitative risk of an educated population?

Debt slavery which solid part of millennials is currently suffering.

If we’re talking about altering society on a mass scale, you’re damned right I care about measurable outcomes.

I value freedom. I value economic consent. If you’re going to use centralized power to forcibly trade me something else for a loss of those two, the the other thing needs to be measurable.

The problem is that there are not enough well paying jobs to support this "educated" population esp with a ton of debt.
