Spending 200k to get an art degree IS a bad decision. Watch the interviews of people with massive debt. I have yet to see a doctor or dentist or computer programmer.

Free public education seems like a fine solution for this. I have no problems with art degrees. I may go back and get one when I am ready to retire. But society doesn’t need to pay or be blamed for a choice for a 200k private degree that won’t pay itself back.
