I think far too many people who wanted to/had more aptitude for a trade (such as plumbing, masonry etc) have been shoved into and through college because there's a snobbery these days among parents and high schools about having a job where you actually get your hands dirty. (I have officially become my dad with this post.)

Not everyone should go to college. Parents (including the college-educated ones) need to realize this and wake up.
