Look at this related article. Sure puts things in perspective. Our colleges and universities are raping parents.

Students Riot in London Over Tuition Fee Rises

An estimated 50,000 students, lecturers and supporters took in part in the demonstration against the ruling coalition's policy of charging students up to $14,500 a year for their education from 2012. That might seem like a relatively small bill when compared with the cost of an American college degree, but it's a massive and unexpected hike for ordinary Brits, who currently pay just $5,300 in annual fees.

Now, here is a dirtly little secret: there are 2 tuition scales at American colleges and universities, one for whites, and one for "minorities."

The college tuition scam

"The higher education industry has ruthlessly exploited its privileged role as the assigner of prestige to young adults beginning their professional lives, in order to grab a larger share of national income. Tuition has increased substantially faster than inflation for the last half century, rising from 6% to 9% a year over any 17 year period, between 1958 and 2001, ranging from 1.2 times to 2.1 times the underlying general inflation rate. At the same time, the industry engages in unconscionable practices, including rampant price discrimination —— charging different prices to different customers, based on management's preferences for certain kinds of customers over others. If a car dealer, steel producer, or grocery store gave massive discounts to some groups of customers, based on demographic and wealth characteristics, they would quickly encounter public outrage and legal consequences. But by calling its price discrimination 'financial aid,' the higher education industry cloaks its actions in the garb of charity.

Even worse, after getting “fisted” with the higher tuition, white guys can’t get hired afterwards, either. This situation will only turn around when whites start behaving like other “permanent underclass” populations, raping and killing people just out of sheer boredom...
