Also in my original post where did I ever mention a degree? I said Human capital. Which is any type of knowledge that makes a person more valuable than someone else in a skilled position. These people may have degrees in political science and general studies. Congrats worthless degrees. So dont get a degree that is not useful in the real world.
There are people with degrees across the whole spectrum working in these plants.

And you are a single guy with few obligations. Try raising a family on $15 an hour. Good luck with that, see you in the food stamp line.
