Majors Matter

Lucianne.com links to the blog of retired editorial writer Don Surber, who reacts to a recent Los Angeles Times/University of Southern California poll. It finds overall Trump ahead.
The Los Angeles Times poll shows Trump up by 5.6 points (47.3% to 41.7%) as September ends.

But a reader pointed out Hillary leads in two categories.

Among college graduates, Hillary leads by 15.2 points. (He leads among those without a BA or BS).

And among those earning less than $35,000 a year, Hillary leads by 10.4 points. He leads among those making $35,000 or more.

My reader stated in an email: "Can we therefore conclude that the 'college grad or up"' Hillary supports are all useless-to-society low-paid SJW-studies majors (English, History, Women/Black/Latino/etc Studies, etc.)?"

Yep.

I would add journalism to the list of worthless SJW degrees.
As I've been telling COTTonLINE readers for years, college majors matter. What someone studies in college is far more important than whether they attend.

Self-indulgent major choices constitute refusals to face the reality that most people eventually must earn a living somehow.  Ceteris paribus, where money is concerned, more is better.

Mirable dictu, having made bad career choices, SJWs also make bad political choices. As the late Mr. Spock might have said: "It is logical, Captain."
