miseducation (or, people getting too much of the 'wrong' degree) is harming the poorest in society by inflating the supply of credentials in an economy.
Can you elaborate on this? Do you mean that in the sense of a degree without practical application?

Then the problem is that people without the skills or qualifications then are the state of being and underclass.
Doesn't this sort of happen already?
Yeah, and it's going to get worse if we don't properly re-organise the education sector's organisation and operation. It's a process called skill-biased technical change, where those whose productivity is boosted via technology receive higher wages than those who have not had their productivity boosted (i.e. a lot of people without qualifications or many marketable skills).
So what's the alternative? What I mean is, what's the proper way to reorganize the education system to maximize outreach and still function adequately in a socioeconomic sense?

Employers will do so in a labour market of which is saturated with higher education.
That's a bad thing?

More jobs for everyone?
. . .

How do you take that from what I said?
An extremely poor understanding of this topic.

No, less jobs. Your BA becomes about as useful as a GED and now that corporate mid-level management gig you were gonna land requires a masters degree.
I don't see how the money plays into that, though. Wouldn't the more skilled individuals still come up on top, and be chosen for the position?
Right. Now we have even more people with useless degrees that can't get a job in their field.

So what do they do? Take unrelated base, entry level management positions away from the laborers already in that field who would actually understand how to manage their co-workers better than some fucking suit that corporate decided to hire because he's got a four year degree in Women's Studies and you just have a high a school diploma.
...That sounds like a bad idea on the employer's part. Why wouldn't they just choose the people with the best qualifications?

No, that means no jobs for people without degrees.
...But wouldn't a much larger number of people have degrees in a country with free tuition?
Yes.

You seem confused here. More people with degrees does not mean more jobs for them. More people with degrees means more people competing for those jobs that already required degrees, and the potential for degrees to become the new minimum for entry in fields that were previously accessible without them.
I am confused- I'm very ignorant about how all of this works, I just want everybody to receive a good education, because I believe everyone is entitled to accessible knowledge.

But in regards to what you said, I'm not sure I understand how that's a bad thing. Now you have a bunch more people educated- albeit the minimum threshold for certain positions and requirements has risen. Doesn't that just mean that things are still going to be better for everyone overall, but the mechanics of how education relates to employment has just sort of "Elevated?"

The only episodes that blow dick are the ones that center around C3PO and R2, and then the Gungan ones.

Luckily, there are very few of them.

You should still watch TCW regardless

1158
I wasn't confused at all, I already knew who Ventress was after the older cartoon
That show isn't canon.

Everything in Dark Disciple is directly the result of events in TCW.

1159
So should I start watching Rebels or what


I haven't even seen TCW
You should definitely watch TCW first.

I've seen the movie and first episode, is there a lot?
There's 5 seasons and the 6th is only on Netflix I think. I didn't bother with the 6th season. The ending of season 5 was satisfying, in my opinion.
Sixth season has massively important details.
Meh... I read through some of the descriptions of the episodes and wasn't interested.
The Order 66 is arc is sort of... The most important part of the whole show, basically.

There are five and a half seasons dude.

It's all on Netflix.

Not on the UK Netflix but I know I can watch them online anyway.

I read Dark Disciple, it was pretty good
I would be insanely confused reading that book if I hadn't seen TCW first, considering it's a novelization of the remaining story reels from season six.

The entire point of university degrees is to act as signallers for a certain skillset. If almost everybody has a degree, employers will begin to demand them just because they can. Which ultimately just hurts the least educated in terms of employment.
Isn't the entire point of free tuition to minimize the unemployment of the "Least educated" by offering school to everyone?

I don't understand what you mean by employers will just begin to demand them "Because they can."
