You must have ignored my articles about bailouts.
And no colleges are inexpensive for the poor working class. My point is who I would prefer to bail out. Not Wall St., no GM, not Hamas, not insurers, not Detroit - young people who are struggling to find jobs.
OF COURSE they are! A combination of two years at community college for an Associate's Degree, then night school or online courses to complete the BA while holding a job avoids college debt. Military Academies and ROTC programs used at schools one can commute to pay for college. For the truly qualified, they can take their qualifications to a school that's excellent but not top tier and get scholarships instead of loans. Students can develop a job school such as basic accounting or with a one-year tech degree (often offered through high schools) and use the money they can make to pay for school.
If they're not qualified for any of these, college loans are just a huge scam....a transfer of wealth to the academia elite, to spend their whole privileged lives in their ivy-covered bastions of liberal manipulation.
The statistics about how college vs non-college grads do don't tell the whole picutre. The top quarter of HS grads seem to put together excellent lives. The bottom quarter of college grads tend to end up with useless degrees.

Good for you; go ahead and bail them out on your own. My kids worked hard as did I to get them through college with no debt.
Now they and I will have to bailout some other lazy parents worthless kids.
Makes me ANGRY.
