Santorum is right calling Obama a snob

I’m no fan of Rick Santorum, but I have to be intellectually honest.  He recently called Obama a snob in a speech. The American Pharaoh wants all Americans to go to college. The reason is indoctrination. I am by no means attacking people who go to college. There are skill sets that require an education of 4-6 years. However, both Democrats and Republicans are pushing College as the solution for all our ills. This is far from the truth.

The push for college education for all is the same mentality that led to the housing bubble. The concept that a college education is a right is ridiculous. Where in the US Constitution is that right? It is not there and was invented by the Left in both parties. Santorum rightly points out that it’s snobbery to assume everyone should go to college. He calls out the American Pharaoh’s real agenda, indoctrination of the youth.

Rick Santorum is spot on here and this should be an issue that Republicans should push. There is nothing wrong in learning skills like welding, plumbing, electricians or mechanics. Studying these skills will get you ahead in life more than a degree in Imperialism in the 3rd World.

I am by no means knocking college education. It is needed in certain fields but our one size fits all mentality for higher education is not economically realistic. The truth is, this is another bubble being created by the government. Like the housing bubble, this will blow up in our faces. I applaud Santorum for speaking the truth and hope others on the Right do as well.
