"Sigh, another blogger trotting out the tired, false cliche that college is useless."
Hello, very definition of a straw-man argument. I'm surprised this is rated so high on this site.
To reiterate, his thesis is not about college, it is this:
"I am offering encouragement to a crop of college kids infantilized by terrible advice from parents and TV who have the freedom and opportunity to try something; while simultaneously describing the only long term solution to America's economic problems: more businesses."
Now, you can certainly take issue with the thesis he presents, but there is no point arguing about something unrelated to the point of the article.
