I'm confused by the numerous non-college educated morons who say to skip school. Their point is if you want the money now you should forget college and go work. I say, if you're good enough to make 85k, 95k, 125k, a billion dollars a year at the age of 17 without a BS, think of how much you could make at 22 with one.
Plus if you're that good, skip the CS classes and study the ones that interest you and hopefully it will make you a better rounded individual.
Think of it this way, college affords you the most unrestrained period of freedom in your life at the best age - why wouldn't you take the opportunity?
I think European media in general is so much better because they are sponsored by the state. The European states have checks and balances to make sure the media is not a propaganda tool. Our American media does not have the same safeguards to prevent commercial interests from twisting the news.
You've got to be kidding me! So you're saying 'govermental' interests are better than commercial?
At least w/commerical interest you know where you stand, as the ability of a corporation/person to make a profit in the underlying goal.
With governmental interest, while the profit motive may be a back door motive, you can't underestimate the ability of various factions screwing up the works to justify their own means.
'checks and balances', what am I in 2nd grade government class?
Darth Vader is the coolest character in the Star Wars Mythos (he's got a cooler voice than Darth Maul) Luke Skywalker is a cry-baby farmer. Your comparison leaves alot to be desired.
