I agree with John70T, but there are two different issues being discussed here:

1. The foolishness of this person
2. The policy on education in this country

First, this guy is an idiot. Not once does he point out the quality of his contributions or the value he brings to his job. Instead he focuses on all the inputs - two degrees, etc. Then he blames his lack of employability on his chosen field and his association with the union (teachers unions IMO, are some of the worst).

Second, our education policy is completely out of whack. The cost of tuition in this country is obscene. None of the politicians ever focus on the fact that it has risen faster than inflation, become more bureaucratic, and added more "staff" than any business in this country. This guy is really lucky he got off with such a low debt (probably means he went to a no name school which is not helping him). Also, student loan interest should be zero to 1% over prime, indexed to w2 earnings. His rate is completely unacceptable.

He needs to stop whining and firing up the other whiners who like to blame anyone who is successful for their failures. Plus, didn't he say he was in some type of athletics? Remember those who can, do. Those who can't, teach. And those who can't teach, teach gym. Happy Easter everyone!
