That's what happens when you let the working classes go to college; they get educated. They learn critical thinking, encounter different points of view, they become more economically independent, they learn philosophy, economics, politics, history, anthropology, psychology--and not just the approved version. People become more aware, and less gullible, and they see how the system really works. And they meet people who aren't just like them. You get nothing but a bunch of troublemakers in return.
I bet you really hated college, didn't you?
But you guys are putting a stop to that, aren't you? You're rationing education, making sure only those who can afford it get to go...or you're gouging those who have to borrow to get there. And you're creating an economy that unless you have a formal degree, even in something useless like Business Administration, will keep you flipping burgers or working at Walmart for the rest of your life.
Another artificial shortage to keep the masses intimidated and profits up...
First it was Gasoline, then
real estate,
pensions,
medical care,
benefits,
jobs,
higher education.
What's next, food?
