College graduates becoming America's lost generation?

When college students voted for Obama, not once but twice, did they become what is now labeled as America’s lost generation?

Have they been betrayed as their futures were mortgaged with huge student loans and then found out that the employment opportunities are being outsourced to job contractors in India and other foreign countries?

When college students voted for Obama, not once but twice, did they become what is now labeled as America’s lost generation?

If they voted for him twice, maybe they shouldn't have been allowed to graduate.

No matter, though, these unemployed 0bots are not counted in the labor pool and therefore do not besmirch comrade 0bama's statistics. Just sign them up for Foodstamps, welfare, give them their 0bamaphone and make sure that they're still registered to vote. /s

We know why it’s being done; no need to cover that...all we have to say is, Amerikka.

Our family is NOT doing the college debt thing...

Phoenix On-line, Strayer University, have very good business degrees 2 and 4 yr and are very competitive...the football programs and bball are not that important...also, they leave out the philosophy of life crap classes that pay some lib professor 6 figures to ruin your kid’s mind so he can drive his Volvo and preach hating Amerikka...no thanks...no debt.

Are the foreigners more qualified for the jobs? Why are these jobs being given to foreigners?

The education system that pilfers thousands and thousands of tax payer dollars to pay incompetent teachers is incapable of teaching a child how to be a contributing member of society.

Mr. Obama pursued these young voters with a vengeance and they followed him like sheep to the slaughter. Parents who have not taught their children how to spot a liar who is selling them a false bill of goods will end up with children in their basements.

I can't be what I want to be, not in this country, not in this century. In 2008 I was in college pursuing a Bachelor of Art in music composition and working part time delivering pizzas. Because of the recession, the fast food business became so slow that other drivers were fighting and undercutting each other for orders. At one point I would work at three different restaurants each week to keep my hours up. In 2010 I graduated with the BA, but I wasn't allowed to study the music I wanted because the NASM which determines the course material for accredited colleges does not allow students to produce anything except 20th century art music. (Youtube Anton Webern, Bela Bartok or Arnold Schoenberg and see how long you last.) In 2011, over the course of 48 hours, I lost my car, my job, my home and my family because of the economic and emotional strains. Within a year I also was forced to give up my piano and my cat. Now I am homeless, living in a company semi, working 90 hours a week making only $23,000 a year. There is no time to do anything musical or creative. I am a bird who's wings have been plucked. I can't be what I want to be, not in this country, not in this century.

P.S. I have only voted conservative - from Bob Dole '96 to John McCain '08. (I was homeless in 2012 and unable to participate in the elections.)
