I literally never said anything remotely close to this irrelevant straw man argument. Maybe if you'd studied the humanities you would've learned to read between the lines ;)

The original article was about student debt.
Four comments upthread from this one, eastbayjake said, "(2) Everyone can benefit from learning new things -- even (or perhaps especially) a liberal arts education -- but many students are attending college to get a credential and land a good job." Your reply to that comment triggered my comment.
Maybe I've had enough humanities to know to look at surrounding context ;-)
There's a lot wrong with going deeply into debt to study the humanities, though - especially when you wind up surprised that you can't make enough of a living to pay off your loans.
