Fair? what the fuck is fair?
I did 4 years in the pen, worked part time and i came out fine with a degree and a pile of loans. care to guess what happened next? i got a job and paid the loans off!!!!! Is that fair?
I'm wondering what means "fair" and why you think your dreamt up perspective of "fairness" even applies to this situation?
i get a bit ruffled with this whole "Government should pay off all student loans" bullshit. People signed up, got loans, went to school, got a degree, and AS AGREED TO PREVIOUSLY, they now have loans to pay off upon gradumacation. No surprises there, right?

Yeah, private schools are insane but state schools have gone way up too. Tuition for my first semester at Berkeley in 2000 was $1800. In my last year it was $2400. Now it's like $10k. Plus all of the other cost of living stuff has gone way up in price too.

thats not actualy all correct^^
also Canada is different than America so I don't have to spend money on all them guns
and its unnecessary to establish a perimeter
but enogh making fun of America, what do kids do if mom and dad has already paid for uni and unless they have done a coop what do they know after they get out ?
how much $$$$$ cost is the parents and their expectations for the Chipper or Brie ?
I was expected to become an electriction or something like that so i exceed my parents expectationsLee Lau - xxx-er is the laziest Asian canuck I know

I don't recall cuing the other Boomers to chime in with how much easier it was for us to work and pay for our own college at the same time. Wife did it totally legit with ZERO support from her parents. 4.0 high school valedictorian, governor's prep school, and 2-3 jobs only took her 7 years to graduate.. Took us another 10 to pay off her loans. Easy peasy!!
Now it costs five times as much or more than it did in the 80s..
And my kids will definitely graduate with student loan debt. We're paying for about half of it upfront..Go that way really REALLY fast. If something gets in your way, TURN!

Back in the dark ages when I went college, I found it was a lot more efficient to take a semester or two off and work full time. Got some real jobs on the resume that paid more than college town gigs. Always a danger of not going back to school.

Looking back the most productive and useful undergrad jobs long term were the people who worked off campus at a semi-challenging “real” job like assistant manager of a store or restaurant. The other jobs not so useful.
edit: and I wouldn’t expect this to pay for an undergrad education. Yeah. Some tgr work from home sales drone can pick the cheapest state school around with instate tuition but gfy.

I probably should be dead by now from all the Trichlorathane I huffed before i huffed all that tolulene, and i'm not so smart,
not as smart as some of the college boy who have outsmarted them selves
Instead I'm like Bob Duval walking around in the beach scene of "Apocalypse Now " nothin is gona hit me
Actulaly when you think about it I probably am out of touch after 16 yrs of whatever man
so everbuddy is disssing me FOR being out of touch
but they all wana be out of touch tooLee Lau - xxx-er is the laziest Asian canuck I know

Maybe the chemical exposure drives the “not so smart”?

now you're just making up words like "trichlorathane" and "tolulene" to prove the synapses point.
Move upside and let the man go through...
