Education Costs, Poor Babies

I can't believe post secondary students who complain about their tuition and books. They actually think they are paying full price for their education.

WRONG!!!!

They are paying for maybe 10% of their education. So, after 4 years of post-secondary education, they are maybe $30,000 in debt. They are going to get a $70,000+ job when they graduate, but they whine about their student loans.

Sorry, you want to rake in $70,000+ a year, $30,000 is less than the car you are going to buy.

Taxpayers are subsidizing all education, you never hear them whining, and now we need to fund early learning?

Sorry, but as a parent, I think I can read a book to my child at bedtime. Are the social engineers going to be there to tuck my children into bed? NOT! Are they going to change the diapers and help them when they have chicken pocks? NO. You can't have a sick kid in daycare.

So, suck it up, you want the big bucks, you pay for it. Noone gets a free ride.
