Tim Pool: spiraling crime amounts to “Distributed denial of business” (DDoB); soaring costs for ever more vapid college degrees hollow out their value in the labor market

“Distributed denial of service” (DDOS) is a form of cyber attack in which a web server (for example) is flooded with requests from a host of computers spread all over the place to ensure it cannot be accessed by legitimate visitors.

By analogy, Tim Pool coins “distributed denial of business” (DDoB) and “distributed denial of law enforcement” where kajillions of simultaneous store robberies/shoplifts/… combined with insane catch-and-release policies for criminals, make it basically impossible for law enforcement to do its jobs.

  1. Obviously the usefulness of degrees will vary; but even a very job-relevant degree might have too many graduates as compared to the job market. Other degrees have no credible career path at all. Some argue that a “liberal” education makes people into better citizens; but since such an education, without credentials, can be acquired at little or no cost through public libraries, museums, public lectures, educational programming, the internet, etc., students should concentrate on starting their career first and then gradually acquire a wider understanding of the world afterwards.

    There’s also complaints from employers that supposedly career-relevant education doesn’t seem to properly prepare students, it’s often seems to them better to hire high-school graduates with a good work ethic and train them.

    These problems have been decades in the making; I recall reading a letter to The Vancouver Province (British Columbia) in the middle 1990’s. The author complained how she was unable to obtain a good-paying job even though she had a degree in “19th century French Romantic Literature”.

    My first thought after reading this was “That’s a strangely specialized degree”, and my second thought was “What job requires such a degree?” Unless the degree-holder could travel back in time to 19th century Paris and apply for an editorial position at a publishing house!

    Her letter was also well larded with Marxist diatribes about the evil of the private sector, so two reasons not to hire her!
