If your first decision as an adult is to take out an enormous loan and bury yourself in debt for a worthless humanities degree why is that my problem?

Because the establishment wants to buy those votes with your hard earned dollars.

Pretty simple really.

Force colleges to issue refunds. That'll make them more selective of who they let in

Also make colleges partly responsible for defaults and tuition costs

I assure you if they had to pick up the tab, costs would go down.

Something, something, not fair, something, billionaires, something, something, something, fiscal equity!

Now you just sit and think about that, sir!

Who in the heck do you think you are asking for personal responsibility and accountability???

I'm so triggered right now I can't even.

I’m pretty sure expecting people to be reliable and productive contributors to society is racist/sexist/phobic in some way.

Because if I get me a college degree-thingy, I will make loads of money and be on easy street forever. Everyone says so.

I think everyone with credit card debt should get together on a class action suit against the Feds to get all that forgiven.

Equal Protection anyone?

It’s pretty absurd that the government isn’t funding higher education in the first place. People on this country are pretty dumb.

While I paid off my student loans, I have a mortgage loan the government could help me with.

Replace people with countries

Then realize it applies to pretty much every country

Pour yourself an old fashioned and have a cigar and wonder why you care about any of it

I blame the money hungry universities as well as our government for this "crisis" more than an 18 year old who is still maturing.
