Quite frankly, I've always believed that people give government too much credit/blame. IMHO I have the most influence over what happens in my life. When I have it good and I'm doing well, I certainly don't give the credit to the government, why should I blame them when I fall on hard times?  I'm sorry that you spent the last 6 years of your life getting a degree in medieval crochet techniques, borrowed $200,000 in Gov't loans (only $80,000 of which was actually spent on tuition, the rest to the "college experience"). Now low and behold, it's been two years since graduation but that $250,000/year job didn't find you while you were getting high and playing XBox in your mother's basement. Poor babies, no wonder you're pissed. |
Just wanted to comment on the college thing, while there are alot of people who get degrees in sanskrit or soem other major which opens them to jobs at starbucks and not much else, the people who actualy get degrees that lead to meaning ful jobs def have it a lot tougher with all the raising tuition and associated costs.
I graduated PA school in 2002 and to see that the tuition has more than doubled since then and not to mention the cost in books and supplies is staggering, and I went to a state school. To see tuition and these private schools going over 50k a year is ridiculous and I think thats something else that needs to be reeled in.
