Philosophers vs Welders?

Fascinating to see the employment prospects of philosophers being addressed in the GOP debate (no such thing as bad publicity right!).

But I think it is a false dichotomy. We don't have to choose between more philosophers and more welders. Perhaps the best outcome would to create more welders who are philosophers and philosophers who can weld! I'm sure a university somewhere will develop a hybrid program for that niche market!

Cheers,
