            This political cartoon suggests that going to school and getting a degree is not worth much, with the economy going downhill. It suggests that war is an ongoing event that keeps recruiting soldiers, so a graduate will be better off going into war. It mainly points out that the United States is lacking jobs, so in result it is difficult for graduates to find jobs.

            My personal opinion about getting an educational degree is that a high school diploma should be earned no matter what because it is essential to have in order to get most jobs. I believe a college degree is great to have because it will open up many more opportunities and doors in the job world. College also makes the average person more knowledgeable and is needed in the world today. Even with the war, I think it is essential to earn an educational degree to benefit you later in the future because later jobs could be easier to find.

I agree that it does alude to a education as pointless, however i see this on a different level. currently it is easier to find a war than a job because in order to get a job you have to fight a war to get one. Why not just join the military and get paid surpass the finding of a job and just get to the fighting.

yeah it's definitaly ridiculous how hard it is to get a job in this economy. or keep one, my mom has lost 2 jobs in the past 2 years. its really depressing. makes you think you might as well give up and go into the military.
