Joe, this could very well be the first thing we agree on.
One thing that I want to respond to in your comments is the part about someone coming out of a 4 year program with massive student loan debt. That infuriates me. We've all seen the articles where people are crying because they can't afford to repay all the money they borrowed. I don't feel a bit sorry for them. They borrowed for a lot more than just school. They were also financing their apartments, pizza, beer, clothes and barhopping and everything else they desired.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for student loans to help finance your education. I just think more common sense should be applied to the amount loaned to students.
Um, it's called a job. I carried a minimum of 15 hours per semester and still worked 20+ hours a week. While I realize today's lazy kids are just that, lazy, it can be accomplished if you have the work ethic and don't expect others to cater to your ever need. It puts a burr under my saddle when I hear people wanting things given to them when all they have to do is get out of the house, kill something (figuratively speaking) and drag it home. Guess it's easier to sit on the sofa with a game remote in your crotch for hours on end. (you/your is generic and not directed at you personally)
why? Because don't you know Government is the solution to every problem?
