SO, YOU WANT FREE COLLEGE, HMMM?

SO, YOU WANT FREE COLLEGE, HMMM?


I am sick to death of hearing how these spoiled college students shouldn't have to pay back their loans. News Flash Sparky, NO ONE MADE you have to take the loan in the first place! No one MADE you go to college! Those were your choices.


Too many people don't even get that choice.


Now you think you are entitled to a free college education. How is that going to happen?  Oh, we are just going to take more money from the rich. Guess what? We have been saying that the rich have to "pay their fair share" for 50 years or more! Every President gets tax increases by using that line, but somehow they still aren't paying their fair share?


REALLY?!


Maybe you need to use the basic math skills that you were SUPPOSED to learn in high school, and figure out just who IS paying MOST of the taxes. If your home gets a refund, then it isn't you, Brainiac!


Don't misunderstand me, the rich should pay more because they have more. But how much is enough?!


And BTW, that "more" should go to charities, and cancer research...etc..etc. But, NOT to some entitled little clown that has never been told "NO" in their life!


This is the same mind set as the "Everyone gets a trophy, no one wins, no one loses." crap! You know where that leads to?  Do you? It leads to that "free" college degree that you got (or will get) being as useless as that stupid "Participation" Trophy.


That's really all that free degree will be, a certificate of "Participation", never mind the grades or working to earn it. NO, there would be no need for that, because "I participated".


That will make that degree and YOU, useless to society. Who is going to want to hire someone like that?  


Oh my, well there's where the REAL crux of the matter is, isn't it? Now laws would have to be passed saying that you can't refuse giving a job to the so called "College Graduate" who still can't add 2 plus 2, (I guess we could label it under "Pre-existing conditions".) It won't matter that the guy owns a business that needs real skills, be it research, engineering or a hundred other things that require a special knowledge to perform and do right.


As long as you get yours, right?


So here is how it will go;


2016--Free college (Because how dare we expect you to pay back those loans?)


2020--Free cars (Because how dare we expect you to pay off the note on that overpriced vehicle you just had to have?)


2024--Free Houses (well duh! Mortgages are SOOO yesterday, and besides, I'm entitled!)


And on and on it goes, because the politicians will always play to the lowest common denominator.


Well, one side will anyway




One last thought; No matter what you hear/read/or believe, it was people taking out loans on homes that they had no way in hell of affording that caused the mortgage crisis, and sent us into the recession of '08 (Which we are still not out of ).


Think "Student loans", and does anyone else get a sense of "Been there, Done that" besides me?


One more last thought; Let's say that the taxpayers DO get stuck with paying off your student loans. You want to take a guess who'll be paying off the next generation's student loans?
That's right, Sparky...It WILL BE YOU!!


Because they are entitled!

And damn it, they participated!
