Date: January 19th, 2018 12:13 PM Author: Hateful heady stage telephone 1) Genders differ in interests, preferences, and aptitudes. This makes 50/50% gender equality in fields like engineering an absurd and counterproductive goal. 2) Women in the workplace has been a disaster and most women would be happier raising children at home. Higher education for women is frequently wasted. 3) College for everyone is an absurd and wasteful goal and most people would be better off in a Swiss-style apprentice system. 4) Our $825 billion defense budget could be slashed in half without making us any more unsafe. It is driven by irrational fear and greed. 5) The IQ gap can be explained almost solely by genetics and this gap explains a lot of societal issues. 6) Democracy itself is largely a bad idea. Most voters are clueless and uninformed and the founders were rightly worried about mob rule. 7) Our modern consumer society is breeding misery and runs counter to everything we know about what constitutes a good life and fostering happiness.

"Almost solely" is too strong. But the genetics are very strong. |

The US penal population of 2.2 million adults is the largest in the world. In 2012, close to 25% of the world's prisoners were held in American prisons, although the United States accounts for about 5% of the world's population. The US rate of incarceration, with nearly 1 of every 100 adults in prison or jail, is 5- to 10-times higher than rates in Western Europe and other democracies.
Based on the results of its study, the NRC calls the US incarceration rates "historically unprecedented and internationally unique". |

First sentence is true. Second sentence is rated mostly false. No one disputes the utter greed and waste in defense spending. But it's not from irrational fear.

Also our military realizes the importance of spring training, ie, gotta give our boys practice in actual shooting so they're ready for the next real war.

whether they should be offered as majors at all at schools beneath the top 25-30 or so (being generous) is highly debatable. nobody being "trained" as a philosopher at a lesser school will be able to contribute to the field or use his education in a productive way. |

Date: January 19th, 2018 1:54 PM Author: Hateful heady stage telephone You don't think there are ANY students at someplace like Ohio State or Texas A&M that would benefit from a philosophy major or double major? Most people at Harvard aren't making material contributions to the field either. I think more people should be studying philosophy and logic not less. On the other hand, english literature shouldn't even be a major. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3864495&forum_id=2#35190023) |

Date: January 19th, 2018 2:03 PM Author: Impertinent rigpig personal credit line minor or double major is fine. the difference between the harvard kid and the texas a&m kid is that the harvard kid a) has a chance to contribute to the field based on his intelligence, b) comes from money, or c) has a strong enough pedigree to find a good job in spite of his major. so even though most of these kids aren’t contributing to the field, it’s good that the discipline is still taught there so that the potential contributors are still being trained, and it doesn’t come at much cost to the other kids in the major because it's not like they won't be employable or will end up destitute. hence my comment about leisure for the noblesse. philosophy can still be a good double major or minor but anyone focusing entirely on philosophy or literature at a worse school would be better off at least splitting time between that and pre-law, some easy business garbage, rudimentary programming, even something like journalism tbh. |
|
Date: January 19th, 2018 2:06 PM Author: Hateful heady stage telephone I basically agree. There should be more certificate program/tech boot camps/mini-MBA programs for kids who want to major in philosophy or history or whatever. The problem is the philosophy major graduates with no marketable skills. The answer isn't to not offer the majors, it is to make sure they graduate with marketable skills. Undergrad business and journalism majors are barely defensible. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3864495&forum_id=2#35190094) |

Date: January 19th, 2018 2:22 PM Author: Impertinent rigpig personal credit line majors like business are prole and not rigorous but they at least leave kids with shreds of knowledge which will help them to get jobs. something like accounting is not difficult at all, yet just two fairly basic courses in accounting would make a kid with an otherwise pedestrian intellect very employable out of college. the point is that kids are increasingly treating college as an extension of high school – not so much as preparation for what you’re going to do with your life (which would force them to think much more seriously as to whether college is even appropriate for them) but as something that is almost a necessity today, regardless of your major. so kids go through the system without much thought, and then after ending up on the job market realize that they don’t know what they need to know to be employable. this would be fine for a) the potential contributor, b) the kid from money, or c) the kid with a pedigree to get a job regardless, but for anyone else it’s a waste of years and tuition $. these kids are then left to spend more years and $ on dumb graduate degrees like MBAs and journo degrees when they were just as capable of learning everything that they'd learn in those programs as an undergrad. this is the kind of stuff that should be taught at the undergraduate level. MBAs exist in part precisely because the material isn’t hard, which leads to employers treating credentials as a proxy for intelligence, but in principle kids are still capable of learning this material without having to do second degrees. i am all for the idea of a liberal arts education but, especially for non-elite kids, it needs to be anchored in some sort of constructive training. |

Date: January 19th, 2018 2:30 PM Author: chest-beating ultramarine parlour rigor Business majors generally have great employment stats. The purpose of college is to get people jobs, full stop. These days though, you don't just major in college. You spend a year fulfilling GECs and then apply to the b-college. So after the dumb kids fail to get in they major in something totally useless, which makes no sense for society. IRL, if you can't get into the b-school you should have to peace out unless you have some amazing talent in something useful.

but there are rapidly diminishing returns for kids at lesser schools who are loading up on literature just because they find other subjects "boring" or because they "don't like math" or something. at that point it's no longer about exposure or "culturing". |

Date: January 19th, 2018 2:27 PM Author: chest-beating ultramarine parlour rigor I wouldn't say "vocational" but rather purely academic areas of study that were focuses of college back when college was primarily there to culturally enrich the children of the super rich, rather than legitimately prepare them to send resumes for a job. You're talking about kids that had a job lined up from birth. They were never intended to take average Joe and prepare them to get a job.
What is really worse is that colleges actually encourage you to major in this bullshit (via grade inflation for those subjects relative to STEM subjects) because it is cheap for them. Professors are cheap, there's no lab equipment to buy, etc. Then you end up with those students graduating with a ton of non-dischargeable debt, no career prospects and the college isn't on the hook at all. |

Date: January 19th, 2018 5:54 PM Author: cream rambunctious gaming laptop Great post - but I'm not sure about #6. It's not too outside the mainstream to discuss over-imprisonment relating to non-violent drug crimes, e.g. mainstream libertarians discuss openly their belief that almost all drugs should be completely legal and govt. shouldn't have a say in what you put in your body.
I think this is b/c the Overton window is primarily restricted by leftist thinking / inability to discuss or engage these topics, and it's actually a mainstream leftist belief that we are tragically imprisoning far too many people (although they're mostly focused on the disparate racial effects of this). |
|
Date: January 19th, 2018 6:17 PM Author: Hateful heady stage telephone I agree that the window is mainly constrained by leftist thinking because they largely control/run the media. Look at the former president of Harvard losing his job due to a media uproar over his fact-based and innocuous comments. He basically said men are intrinsically more interested in technical/engineering topics on average, they are more willing to sacrifice their personal lives for career success, and more men have high-level math ability (six times as many boys score over 700 on the math SAT or something close to that). It shouldn't come as a surprise that there are more male physics and engineering professors given these facts. It was all over the news, with outlets wrongly stating he said boys are better than girls at math.
Number 6 should probably be deleted, but it is remarkable to me that there isn't more of an uproar about the fact that we are paying $80K a year to house prisoners for years that have relatively minor, non-violent offenses. |
