Education Treadmills of Production & Consumption

Since most of us were young we have always been told that education is a top priority, &

that without it we will be working at the local fast food place with no real job. At least that’s

what my mother told me. Education has pressured students that they will be less likely to

succeed in life unless they can pursue a higher education, such as a degree. The reality is that

there are so many students pursuing a degree & not receiving what is considered a good paying

job. In theory, the idea is to produce students with degrees to promote expansion of the

education system & maintain a continuous process of production. This shows financial

supporters a degree program that is sought out by many intended students in order to normalize

it, therefore providing a mass amount of students who want to pursue a degree, keeping the

process continuously moving.

There is a statistic that is commonly used by parents, insurance companies to promote

purchasing of college loan programs, & universities to justify the increase of tuition in schools.

“According to the College Board, college graduates earn 80 percent more on average than high

school graduates. Over the course of your child’s life, the difference in earning potential between

a high school graduate & a college graduate is more than $1 million” (Schnieder, 2009, p.2).

This was an advertisement from State Farm quoting the statistic. The problem with this is,

although employers look for those with a higher education but no skill to bring to the table, they

are also looking to degree holders to start an advanced degree. This may create a profit for the

education institutions who influence companies to give those with a higher education an

opportunity, butit creates waste & an environmental issue by not giving others a chance at

employment, ultimately causing unemployment.
