> Thanks for all your comments. I saw some emotional reactions and I hope no one was thinking that because I had asked a simple question that I was somehow implying 'everyone' should go to school and if they don't, they must have something wrong with them..geez...I had recent thoughts/regrets wishing I would have never gone back to school...

> I was thinking in terms of human capital in the U.S. and science and technology...Not to far from now, more and more people are going to have to get some type of post-high school formal education

> I just like to look at trends and try to project what's going to happen in the future, and was in part trying to figure out if college was mader easier to obtain financially in the US, if more people would go or if the same amount of people would go. Trying to see if there were cultural implications behind the decisions too.
Great points and great questions!
