This piece is addressed primarily for future parents who might be considering college education for their children, rather than letting them follow some kind of trade schooling. College might be the most important investment a parent can make for their children. I am also writing it for those who wonder about the origins of uncontrollable immigration patterns. I will outline how the financial institutions who are in bed with local governments, used academic institutions to push this trend in order to sustain our cancerous financial system that aims for more profit as the value of money is constantly diluted through their printing press.
Colleges and universities have been commercialized over the past 30 years. This model started in the US of A. I will not analyze it historically. What is important to know is that the model today has reached such a level of degradation that it should be considered an outright scam for about 99% of the attendees.
Academic learning is a gift just like a natural talent, e.g. the ability in mastering football. It is evident from a young age. It is not something one can cultivate with the hope of eventually matching the gifted. If you are a believer of the “hard work” model which has been pushed on to you since the dawn of corporatism, then you can have been fooled from the Hollywood narrative of the “American Dream” that has been flooding our living rooms for decades. The truth is that no matter how hard you try, if you don’t have the proper genetic dice roll that happens to fit within a given ability that is considered useful within our current system, you will always be mediocre. Yes, there are cases where “the pig flies,” but this is the exception to the rule. This delusional desire that you can be one of the exceptions to the rule is what drives many plebeians to throw their money away on the lottery games. It’s a form of religious belief wrapped in plenty of ego.
Imagine if in the business of professional football leagues, we decided to train players after 20, then lower the admission criteria in football leagues, so that all of us can have a shot as “professional graduates” in a common league. It sounds absurd. Yet, the same thing happens today within the academic sector. Everyone is “educated”, even with doctorates, but their performance in academic innovation is extremely poor. The vast majority of candidates are left only with a piece of paper and a false sense of accomplishment, while some of them teach other…“professors” to take part in this pseudo-intellectual pyramid scam.
In the past, only gifted students ventured in academia and the vast majority were on scholarships. The academic institute invested in their talent and hoped that their early capabilities would be profitable for the institute in the future through groundbreaking innovations. This is also the case with any other investment that coincides with the real-world market. When you pay for something, it is because you lack that particular value. When someone pays you, it means you have what it takes and someone is willing to pay you for it. This relationship applies especially to academia when it comes to the scholarship model.
Colleges today have become degree-issuing kiosks. They are not particularly interested in providing knowledge or innovation because they can cash-in alternatively; tuition fees. Hence, the level has dropped dramatically to the point where a pulse and a high school diploma can qualify you for “studying.”
This economic model benefits everyone. It is extremely profitable for the university, profitable for the bank that lends the money, profitable for the parent who sees their child “prosper,” and profitable for the student who will live in an academic adult camp for several years, enjoying themselves with carefree parties, romantic relationships, and careless learning exploration that is often lower than highschool level. It is essentially a nursery for adults and we have gotten used to this narrative because this is how Hollywood framed it in our brains. There is something for every level and if you search long enough you can find an “approved institution” to “study”.
This gambit as a whole benefits the state, since through provisional subsidies, it can control the narrative for specific social and moral imperatives and thus influence the socio-cultural, political and economic scene. In essence, these institutions function as new churches with academics being the priests 2.0, crafting new behaviors and moralities that suit the socio-economic landscape. Many of the problems we have today with political correctness propaganda and immigration stem from the university sewer that promotes an “equality” agenda because they see everyone as customers. As useful idiots.
Although on the surface this model seems beneficial and humanitarian, in the end it leads to extremely poor and dangerous outcomes in the real world. It is a dirty little secret that everyone knows but no one is willing to admit since almost everyone is guilty in one way or another. Who will point the finger at whom in the end? “Let him who is without sin cast the first stone,” the supernatural carpenter once said.
Mediocre to poor students become health professionals, become executives in financial institutions, hold key positions in both the private and government sectors. The cases with fake degrees we often hear about, are just the tip of the iceberg. The truth goes much deeper. The vast majority of graduates are incompetent. We complain daily that “something is wrong” but we fear facing the harsh reality that we as a whole are the real culprits. We took the bait and joined the circus that was advertised to us.
Many of you do not know or dismiss the idea of what most students do to obtain the coveted university degree. For about 5 years, my job was to do degrees and research for others. I estimate that over 50% of students in academic institutions have used services like mine. 80% of my clientele were women. The client-student gave me the notes from the supervising professor and showed up in class. I handled the rest. And let us not forget. Their degrees were already “sold” from the day they went to the bank to get a loan and pay the institution. At some point, one way or another, they would graduate. I was just the extra step to get them there.
Another point you should also keep in mind is that a good portion of academics are not there because they are good teachers or academics but because they are good salesmen. Usually they are ones who graduated from the Eastern European block since no other decent level institution would accept them. These “professors” have an agreement with the universities to campaign through their social media profiles in order to displace the competition with one-year and other “lesser” diplomas, thus forcing the individual to study with them in a four-year program. And they get compensated well since they fool plenty of suckers. The governments never take a clear stance on this because all institutions are profitable for them, especially the smaller ones that take students from third countries, while in effect they are just entry level workers using the academic institution as a legal labor door. Of course they never admit this. Rather, every year they find the exception to the rule, the poster boys and girls, and advertise to the masses that “this is who they can be”. This phenomenon is similar to the tactics religious cults use to recruit people.
One of the main reasons immigration has become uncontrollable today is this very economic model of the universities that has been enabled by financial institutions while governments police it. Mediocre to poor students, who do not have the required skills, buy a degree, are baptized professionals in a field that does not suit them, and thus we are forced to import delivery drivers and craftsmen to address this shortage of staff. The bitter truth is that the delivery drivers and craftsmen were already in the local market. They are the “scientists” who took out loans to study and did not enter college with a scholarship as gifted. The result is that we have immigrants from third countries doing the jobs that our compatriots should do. Our haughty compatriots who choose to provide mediocre and often dangerous services rather than face the reality of their incompetence. This is the truth that sours most people and forces them into mental gymnastics in order to avoid it. This is why everyone blames everyone else for nepotism and poor performance but they are rarely able to point the finger at their own self.
I know I have already raised your blood pressure with all this because either you or someone close to you is a member of this scamenomic brothel. And I know it to be true because from a high school class of 20-25 people, you know the best 2-3 people from the class who excelled and should indeed be venturing into academia while the rest of the class were struggling. Yet, the rest just took out a loan and found an academic shack either locally or abroad to get the magic paper. You remember them. Somewhere, however, we lost count with our ego because as a whole, we fell victim to this economic system of financial fraud that is not only linked to academia but on a deeper level to the general nature of banks, investments, and employment. “Everyone is taking part, this is how it is today, why shouldn’t I do it too?” is the common excuse.
The reason we still value reputation in our system, whether it is a doctor or another professional, is because deep down we know that papers do not matter, appearances on social media do not matter, popularity does not matter. What matters is ability and results, not superficial impressions. The best professionals do not even have a social media account because they are extremely busy being the best at what they do. The mediocre and the poor ones however, try to gain impressions with political rhetoric, appearing on TV and podcasts, and being the center of attention. They construct a deceitful image that this popularity is also reflected professionally. And many are fooled for the same reason they consider that if something is popular, it is also good or true. Most of these scammers eventually shine through via the good ol’ “fake it until you make it”.
If we really love our children, our country, and our pocket, we must reevaluate whether we should indeed send our children to take part in this scam. Especially today with the direction social and political issues are taking. We know something is wrong. We live in an era where everyone is a scientist, but nothing substantial is produced, and everything is going downhill to the point we are identifying it as “the incompetence crisis”. Unlike the past, a handful of scientists, remarkable scientists, built everything we enjoy today. And we, who supposedly took the baton and multiplied their numbers (supposedly on the same basis), cannot even maintain their work.
