可以扩大职业与技术教育，而其花费仅相当于大学补贴的一部分。可以放宽职业许可证发放规则，给没有接受正规教育的人创造机会。
It is absurd that people have to get college degrees to be considered for good jobs in hotel management or accounting--or journalism. It is inefficient, both because it wastes a lot of money and because it locks people who would have done good work out of some jobs.

大学学位与经济成功之间的紧密联系可能是我们社会秩序中几乎不受质疑的部分。当后辈人回首时，可能会对它的残酷性不寒而栗。
