I like the idea of a two-year technical degree. They are immensely practical. They take less time (and less money overall) than four-year bachelors degrees. They usually have a large percentage of time spent in hands-on labs. Having a two-year degree is much better than having only a high-school diploma (which is much better than having no diploma.)
You can't get there from here
The problem with having a two-year degree is that the ceiling is much lower than it would be with a four-year degree. Or, in other words, the ladder to where you want to go may not reach down to people with two-year degrees.
As with any life decision, you have to first ask yourself what your goals are.
Let me illustrate with a tale of two friends... after the jump.

A friend of mine has been quoted saying, "you gotta dig deep for the meat." We were on a scout campout; we made a huge pot of stew. All the meat happened to be at the bottom. Needless to say the meat is the best part. If you want the best parts of life you have to put some effort into it.
