Just a ridiculous comment. There are no starving college students.
Women and minorities hardest hit.
I’m shocked that homelessness has suddenly reappeared in 2 years after Obama solved the problem 8 years ago.
Especially in California and LA where homelessness is non-existent because of strong Democrat policies.
In fact it’s so good in california that they’re taking in millions of immigrants with no impact to their homelessness, economy or the environment as they have plenty of water and power to go around.
Well, if they are not participating in the economy, they will not reap its rewards.
I worked part-time and summers when in college, and I was never hungry or homeless, nor were any of my college friends. Of course, it didn't cost $60K/year to go at that time, but that's a different issue...
Best part of people working kitchen duty at my college is they brought back all the leftovers after the dining halls closed. The food would have been otherwise tossed. Sometimes the guys would bring back a huge plastic bag filled with hamburgers! We definitely did not go hungry.
“Homeless’ college students? Don’t they have a dorm room? “Hungry”...maybe if they stopped toking they would haven’t the “hunger”? What a nitwit-written article written by a pinheaded mess.
Maybe they’d like to try doing what I did when I was in my 30’s, divorced, and raising two sons. I worked full-time days, and went to college full-time nights. Had a 4.0 average, and graduated with Honors. Too many pussified kids today. Bet they got money for booze and drugs though.
My grandfather had a part-time job and put himself through a Master’s program at USC.
Non-stop illegals mean part-time jobs, physical jobs and summer jobs are TAKEN.
Meanwhile, tuition sky-rockets.
Boomers always say young people have it super soft and in some respects it’s true.
BUT:
Say, how many of you when you were young REALLY could foresee a day you’d be a minority, or that there simply would be NO MORE white people at all..?
Because that’s what they’re living under.
How many of you when you were young visited the emergency room for something very minor but then owed $10,000..?
And "strong economy" to a college student? Maybe after graduating with a degree and some skills, but while still in college?

My college student just started a summer job at a restaurant. In the Trump economy, with fewer illegals, there are LOTS of entry-level jobs available. I see want ads all over the place.

Careful, talk like that will cause the little darlings to become triggered.
I was working between 40-50 hours per week while taking 15 credits. Can’t relate to the idea of a starving student. Trouble is they aren’t “hungry” enough!
Whatchoo talkin bout Willis??? All of my food was prepaid for when I went to college. And it was all you can eat.
Spent 9 years in college, AB and 2 Masters. Was never homeless or hungry. Worked at school and at a job every day.
My advice to “homeless and hungry” college students: GET A FRICKING JOB!
