These kids have been sold on the BS that they simply cannot live without a college education.
The Colleges helped sell that crap and then they took advantage of the poor dumb suckers and jammed the cost down their throats.

This country still needs mechanics, plumbers electricians and many other trades that can earn people more money than college if they become good at it.

Colleges took advantage of the kids, raised their prices and then raised them again when the government started giving out easy money.

This is what higher education is in America today, Crooks , shysters, con Men and scam artists. They told the kids they couldn’t make it in life without college and then the kids come out with no jobs and their hopes shattered, and loaded with debt, working as waitress’s, which they could have done without the friggin sorry assed sheepskin.

My advice is if you go to college, educate yourself to what courses will give you a hand up to a career, or don’t go at all. Educate yourself before you educate yourself.Don’t let these shysters talk you into debt.

You are absolutely correct. As soon as the government started
handing out our money these colleges expanded in scope and
size and number..

It’s the students own fault. And the lying administrators
who just want the students money,and vote for candidates
who will make laws taking our money and giving it to the
colleges....total racket.
We’re gonna get away from the entitlement society when we
go broke..
