(Today was my 16th session, out of 35. Of TMS.)
I havent the faintest clue of just how messed up the American or Canadian university systems are, having had no experience of either. I recall my ex son-in-law not being able to get beyond being an adjunct professor when he was aiming for an academic career at one point. He ended up going to a seminary and becoming a priest. (Which is one thing you can do with a degree in philosophy.)
I do get a sense, though, of how those born into poverty are perpetuated to stay there without extraordinary measures being taken, like a burning ambition and a supportive family to move you beyond it. Or a benefactor of some kind. I know that the public education system is fast being disabled and dismantled here (in the USA) which will only further divide the Haves from the Have Nots.
I lost any hope I might have had at any time about having a career long ago.
