Unemployed college students beg for loan forgiveness while great careers thirst for new people
Are the young people in your life wondering what direction to go? Are they considering taking on massive student loans without a clear goal in mind?
In this fascinating conversation between John Stossel and Mike Rowe (former host of “Dirty Jobs”) we’re challenged to rethink what we believe about higher education.
In this quick discussion from Stossel TV, (sign up here: https://www.johnstossel.com/#subscribe) Rowe takes on higher education, how the “safety first” mantra actually hurts society, and why it’s easy to save lives but LIVING life is more important.

The Crisis Industry: How Activists Profit from Panic
From StosselTV
Pollution, homophobia, racism, hate; activists claim everything is getting worse. The opposite is true. But if they admit that how would they raise money?
“For activists, success is a threat,” journalist John Tierney explains. “It is going to put you out of business unless you find a new cause.”
Tierney has covered activists for years and watched them move from one cause to another. “But it’s not a business,” I push back. “They’re not making money doing this.” “Oh, yes, they are,” replies Tierney. Lots!
Our new video looks at how these activist groups raise billions of dollars, the consequences of their activism, and why we fall for their scares.

Why Letting Your Kid Walk Home Alone Could Land You in Jail
From StosselTV
A mother was ARRESTED for letting her 8-year-old son walk half a mile home. Prosecutors said she put her kid “in imminent danger of death.” Really?
The police argued it is too dangerous for a kid to walk alone in his own neighborhood. The data show otherwise. Being in a car is 200 times more dangerous than the risk of getting kidnapped. There are only about FIVE stranger abductions per year, according to: https://www.missingkids.org/content/d… In contrast, traffic deaths averaged 2,386: https://wisqars.cdc.gov/reports/?o=MO…
Lenore Skenazy, author of “Free Range Kids,” points out that irrational fear makes parents and authorities overreact, and keep kids from going out and learning about the world. For the full story, you can watch our video here.
