One Last Thing

This is for the people who went to a good school, got a good degree and paid off their loan.

When you say "they signed a contract!" then got a degree that proved worthless you're actually saying, "Fuck them!  I got mine!"

Because refusing to sign that contract means forgoing the education that can lead to a better job.

You prefer they remain as unskilled labor, never venturing far from minimum wage?

I will keep repeating until it sticks, nobody responsible for the situation is being asked to pay for it.

But some compassion needs to be put forth, or at least some empathy.

You people, saying "fuck you, I have mine!" are also the people who've been repeating, for decades, that you MUST go to college.

Well, the kids did.  For all the good it did them.

All because you didn't understand that college and its financing aren't what they were when you went to college any better than my father-in-law grasps a smart-phone.  And for the same reason.

There's no just way out of this situation.  The people doing the fucking aren't going to be paying for what they did.

But the most vocal people condemning the people who are fucked are the people who did the most to convince the fucked to get fucked.

Own up to it.

You pressured two generations into behaving as if the economy and population was expanding like Eisenhower was president.

I won't even start in on the fallacy that you can actually get into many trades unless you're related to someone already successful or there's a vacuum left by that someone dying.
