One thing I think has gone wrong is a confusion between secondary schooling, scholarship, and vocational training. Nothing wrong with reading some good books -- I think most people benefit from it. Getting more time in school is beneficial, and a lot of people will benefit from that studying in their jobs. But schooling is not a substitute for vocational training, nor for apprenticeship, both of which should exist. Most jobs which currently "require" a college degree ought not to. But I'm not saying people shouldn't go to school. More like do both.

There’s certainly room for school. We just need to make it more affordable, relevant, and uphold academic standards.
