This is a major issue and one of the reasons why Henry Ford did not put much stock in formalized education. He had his faults, but it is difficult to discredit his monumental contributions to society. Most B.S. and M.S. recipients that I know, work in fields not at all related to their degree. It is ultimately the fault of higher education. There is a 20,000% markup on undergraduate coursework. This makes the health insurance industry look like the "good guys". Much of what is wrong with our system can be traced back to the greed of these institutions and the people who are employed by them. The exorbitant cost and the devaluation of this system that we all hold near and dear to our hearts must be fixed. I hope this changes-- and soon, starting with you Mary Sue Coleman. Shame on you and your $553,500.00 salary (2009-2010).
