La fantasía de generar riqueza potenciando la escasez, en occidente somo expertos.Para generar riqueza desde la abundancia vamos a tener que ponerlo todo patas arriba.No es fácil gestionar la abundancia. Si lo fuera, en los EEUU no habría indigentes.No es un café para todos.Primero hay que definir el café. ¿Querrán los vascos y catalanes? ¿Los himbersores?Luego hay que definir el todos. ¿Inmigrantes legales? ¿Ilegales?Y antes, luego o durante, poner a funcionar los mecanismos de distribución del cafe para todos.Podemos poner el ejemplo conocido de las infraestructuras en España. Foco de corrupción donde los haya.¿Vamos a pagar a las constructoras por construir?Se abren muchos interrogantes.Lo que digo, es que tenemos que empezar a caminar YA y ver a donde nos lleva. Aferrarse al modelo y sistema antiguos es una sentencia de muerte. Como Roma, el imperio occidental está cayendo.No puede ser estar en 2025 con adultos de 30 años follando en el coche porque no tienen otro sitio, y divorciados de 50 viviendo con sus padres. Joder, que es una puta casa, que mi tatarabuelo ya tenía una.

[«1.300 millones de euros en los próximos diez años» es una frase de mierda para autoconsumo de comemierdas.]
Las tres estafas en las que se ha ido todo el bienestar para la gente que podría haber suministrado el privilegio exorbitante del dólar a su población:- Los estudios universitarios (estafa, el precio tras décadas de cruces de ofertas y demandas siempre es el mismo, todo lo que tus padres puedan ahorrar y un poco más).- La asistencia sanitaria (lo mismo, tu tratamiento siempre cuesta todo lo que tengas y un poco más para pagarle el sueldo a un médico que fue a una universidad que le costó a sus padres todo lo que pudieron ahorrar y un poco más).- La vivienda, que siempre cuesta todo tus salarios pasados, presentes y futuros para que el rentista se lleve todo lo que te saca el médico que fue a una universidad que a sus padres les costó...
Report: 51% of Gen Z Views Their College Degree as a Waste of MoneyJocelyne Grafner · 2025.04.21Once considered the golden ticket to career success, the demand for college degrees is falling, and the value proposition of obtaining one is being called into question. We conducted a survey¹ of 772 professionals in the U.S. with an associate’s degree or higher, revealing generational differences in perceptions of educational value, with younger professionals expressing significant skepticism about the return on their college investment.As artificial intelligence transforms industries and demand in knowledge-work sectors remains low, employers and employees are rethinking the value of higher education in America.The generational value gapOur survey results clearly show a generational divide in workers' perception of college investment. While only 20% of Baby Boomers consider their degrees a waste of money, that number jumps to 41% for Millennials and a striking 51% for Gen Z.Why such a dramatic difference? For decades, getting a degree meant substantially higher wages. From 1980 through about 2010, the gap between what college graduates earned and what those with only high school diplomas earned grew significantly. But recently, this advantage has hit a wall. Economists note that the "college wage premium" has plateaued.At the same time, college has become dramatically more expensive. Tuition and fees across all universities in the United States over the past two decades have jumped between 32% and 45%—public, private, in-state, and out-of-state—even after accounting for inflation.For many, this financial burden follows graduates long after they receive their diplomas. Over half (52%) of our respondents reported graduating with student debt. Millennials were hit particularly hard, with 58% carrying education loans into their careers.The consequences extend beyond monthly payments. Nearly four in ten respondents (38%) believe their student debt hindered their professional growth more than their degree helped, a devastating assessment of what was supposed to be a stepping stone to success. Unsurprisingly, respondents with student debt (41%) are more likely to think that their degree was a waste of money than those without debt (31%).Part of the problem in the equation regarding the value of college degrees may be simple math: more people have degrees now. As sociologist Jonathan Horowitz explains in his research on the relative advantage of degrees, "When college degrees are more common, there may not be enough highly-skilled jobs to go around; some college-educated workers lose out to others and are pushed into less-skilled jobs."The combination of stagnating wage benefits, skyrocketing costs, degree saturation and debt may explain why younger generations increasingly question whether college is worth it. The traditional promise of higher education simply doesn't align with the reality many younger professionals experience.Skills-reality mismatchAt the same time, while most college graduates acknowledge learning valuable skills during their education, a majority believe they could perform their current roles without their degrees—in fact, 68% of Gen Z respondents confirmed that they believe they could do their job without a degree versus 49% of Baby Boomers. Trends in employer behavior reveal that they might feel the same way.A recent economic analysis found that employers increasingly view high school and college graduates as more interchangeable than they once did. Where employers might have previously seen college graduates as having unique, irreplaceable skills, they now see more overlap between what college and high school graduates can contribute. Despite this tacit agreement, two-thirds (67%) of respondents would be bothered if they found out their colleagues obtained the same or similar role without a degree.Younger professionals are entering a job market where the distinction between having a degree and not having one has blurred for many positions, reducing the wage advantage that made college such a clear economic choice for previous generations.The value beyond technical skillsWhile some question the ROI of their degrees, many still find value in the college experience—especially when learning is focused on aspects beyond technical training. As Nico Maggioli, a communications design graduate from Syracuse University, explains: "I think my degree was worth it, mainly for the purpose of being at Syracuse." Maggioli’s experience highlights how his program focused not on technical details but on developing a designer's mindset: "My teachers mainly focused on how we think and tried to make us think as designers and view the world as designers rather than focusing on all the technical details, which I think is super useful right now, especially with AI because now you don't really need to know any technical details of design—AI can do it for you."Rethinking education for an AI-driven worldEducational institutions are under increasing pressure to adapt—especially as AI continues to change the workplace. However, as noted in a previous conversation with Francisco Marmolejo, Higher Education President and Education Advisor at Qatar Foundation, the rate at which technology is evolving would make it inadvisable to restructure education around the latest technology."It would be naïve to think that focusing on the technicalities of specific AI tools could be the best possible approach,” he explained. “Let's keep in mind that, in the end, specific tools can change and can become obsolete much quicker than expected."Marmolejo’s thought process highlights the experience of nearly one-third of our respondents. Thirty percent feel AI has made their degree irrelevant, and the number jumps to 45% for Gen Z, highlighting the way technological advancements can outpace humans. Instead, Marmolejo advocates for focusing on what he calls "essential skills" (traditionally labeled as "soft skills"). He notes, "A big advantage of generative AI is that educational institutions will have more time to prepare students on the humanistic side. More effective efforts can and should be dedicated to making sure that all students become competent in much more valued skills for the future of work, such as analytical skills, teamwork, and critical thinking."This aligns with Maggioli's experience at Syracuse, where the focus was on developing a designer's mindset rather than technical proficiency—precisely the kind of education that remains valuable even as AI capabilities expand.Adapting to a skills-first futureAs AI continues reshaping the skills landscape, educational institutions and employers must reconsider their approaches. For schools, this means emphasizing adaptable thinking and essential human skills over technical training that may quickly become outdated. For employers, it means developing more nuanced approaches to evaluating talent beyond degree requirements.In line with Marmolejo’s thinking, we’re seeing a broader shift in the labor market. Skill-first hiring, a hiring practice aimed at opening up the labor pool, is gaining momentum and is more relevant than ever in the changing landscape of work and generative AI.For people who have faced barriers to higher education, this new era represents an opportunity to be evaluated for the skills needed for a job. For all job seekers, this hiring modality means finding ways to demonstrate valuable skills from every aspect of life—even those that don't seem immediately relevant to work. And for individuals in higher education, skills-first hiring serves as a reminder to focus on comprehensive learning and skill-building rather than just obtaining credentials.___¹ This survey was conducted online within the United States by The Harris Poll on behalf of Indeed from March 27-31, 2025, among 772 U.S. adults 18 and older who are employed full or part time or seeking employment and have an associate degree or higher. The sampling precision of Harris online polls is measured by using a Bayesian credible interval. For this study, the sample data is accurate to within +/- 4.1 percentage points using a 95% confidence level.
Siento decir lo obvio, pero Úrsula sabe perfectamente todo eso, y más.
[Yo no diría que es una mierda la persona que ha pronunciado la frase profaltaofertista «mil y pico millones, 10 años»; sino que lo que es una mierda es la socialdemocracia; que, no lo olvidemos jamás, es la que inventó el artefacto popularcapitalista cuando proclamó en los años 1910 (para echar a los comunistas de la 1.ª Internacional) que «el capitalismo-como-sistema puede tener un rostro amable».El anti-Sánchez es comemierdismo porque comemierdismo es, entre otras cosas, todo aquello que le agua la fiesta al Capital. El Capital es el que quiere el cambio de modelo y necesita orden en la calle. Hay dos formas de establecer el orden: a hostias y suavonamente. Y la derecha española es impotente en las dos. Por contra el Sr. Sánchez es buenísimo en lo suyo, tanto que será presidente de la Comisión Europea tras el agotamiento de los actuales líderes de la derecha, cuando las masas se den cuenta de que sus hijos son pobres porque ellos son pobres.La verdadera acción anti-Ladrillo del Gobierno de España no es construir-construir-construir, lo cual no quiere decir que fingirlo no sea asqueroso también. La acción va a ser el campeón nacional del alquiler, el parque público de vivienda social. Pero el golpe de gracia viene de fuera. De esto no cabe duda. Por eso hay que estar mirando con los dos ojos —no con uno— a EE. UU. y a Alemania. Hoy tenemos una noticia grave: la quiebra de la aseguradora FWU (OVB Allfinanz).Por cierto, esta mañana he sido instruido por una fiscalista en cómo blanquear dinero negro recurrente de pymes adquiriendo pisitos de mierda, reformándolos para alquilar (en realidad, para pase) y simulando ingresos de turistas. Estamos hablando de Madrid.]
