HS Diploma vs. Liberal Arts Degree

The author of this article argues that one would be better off going through life with a high school diploma than with a Liberal Arts degree, given a bunch of "average" assumptions. While it is a stretch to go along with these assumptions and no other factors, it is still interesting to see that this comparison can actually be made. I've always thought a Liberal Arts degree was a waste of money (especially when you consider the liberal professors and the agenda-pushing garbage they spew - generally speaking, of course) and this is just one more small piece of data to help prove the point.
