Congratulations, now you have a wonderful opportunity to go back to school and earn your degree! Then you can earn more and live longer...

The average college graduate earns $78,000 a year compared to the $45,000 earned by someone with only a high school education.
That's a 75% premium, or more than $30,000 a year.

Also Americans who do not have a four-year college degree (about two-thirds of the adult population) were expected to live on average
about ten years less than those who do.

Damn straight - all those blue collar types who do physical work types of jobs are failures, not smart enough to go to college. They aremired in their ignorance and need to be cared for by elites who know whats best for them.
