Yes.
I was working full time and attending night classes at a private women’s college. Tuition was astronomical but worth it and I worked nonstop to pay for it.
During a review for an upcoming exam, a black girl in front of me dozed. At the end of class she awoke, and was standing there, leisurely stretching with a satisfied grin on her face. I asked her if she was worried about the exam and she said no. I pressed her, “Aren’t you worried about failing??!!” Her response was that I would just pay for her to take the class again.
Wonder how many babies she has on welfare now with who knows how many baby daddies. The scam is for them to stay in school. They get free tuition, living expenses and some sort of a stipend to stay in school. I read that it is not uncommon for them to have multiple degrees but to stay in school instead of actually having to work.
I knew a young single mom (white, middle class) when I was in college. I was pretty naïve about how welfare worked. When she told me that all she had to do was maintain a C average and she got tuition, books and housing paid for plus living expenses I was shocked and livid. I was working a part time job, taking out loans and maintaining an A- average to keep my academic scholarship...which covered 10% of the tuition. What a joke.
