I agree with you. I don't feel sorry for most of them. People made poor decisions and now are *****ing because the government won't give them handouts like they did corporations. Well sorry but, corporations have a better chance of paying the government back.

"boo hoo, I got $100k in student loan debt" who asked you to take on such a debt??? can't afford college? Find a cheaper one! And if you do take on student loans, don't be surprised that when you graduate no one wants a person with a English lit degree.

I especially like how some of them are complaining that they can't make more than $20k a year when they have no marketable skills. And from the looks of their pictures, its no wonder why they can't find a job. Companies don't want slobs.

I think the real answer is, these folks are an extension of the Obama campaign. The Democrat financial arm/goon squad (unions) are now getting into the act.

We have a winner!

This is all about anarchy as they see Obama's chances of re-election imploding and with it their dreams of his Communist father.

P.S.

Call me I need my toilet cleaned!!!!

Here, here

I am paying for the tuition for all my kids. However, I told them I would not pay for a worthless degree that would not allow them to get a good job when they were done with school. Art, music, theater, dance, philosophy, ect... degrees should be the playground of the ultra-rich who are living off trust funds. No one in thier right mind should pursue those degrees and expect anything but unemployment when they are all through with school.

I paid for all my tuition through working my ass off and scholarships, as my parents were poor. These deadbeats need to get off thier butts, roll up their sleeves, and get to work.

around here going to college is a career. I'm in const and things are hard but I make it somehow. most of the younger guys and I mean even in their late 30's simply went back to school and can borrow enough for tuition plus all living expenses forever it seems. We call them professional students. So sad when I call one for a good job they can't do it as they have class or homework. the gov is to blame for giving all these loans away and the colleges more to blame for smelling all this money and raising tuition and promising pie in the sky jobs. glad I am just an old simple Carpenter in my last years.These poor young fools will be in debt for life

We are the anti-American fools who wish to tear this country down and build it up to be something a liken to North Korea, where there are no corporations and greed. We are the the 9/11 truthers. We are angry and the anti-tea party yet cant offer up any worth while common sense ideas, but we sure can rant."


From what Ive seen of these folks, first hand and NOT on the liberal media, the above is how they should really describe themselves to be honest.

"This is the true revolution. Thank God the real people are at least trying to fight back. Instead of that koch rag tea party"

Delusion chant set off when Obama failed to admonish Hoffa for issueing death threats to political opponents when he stepped up to the podium following Hoffa's threats.

Obama has signaled the socialist rabble to come out in the open and has clearly declared violence is a positive coming from the left but intolerable from the right.

I don't get it. Many of these people have masters degrees, yet have $100k in school debt. Did they not take a single personal finance or economics class in their pursuit of said degree? Jesus people, what the hell are you thinking going into that kind of school debt? That kind of debt for medical school is justifiable, but for art? MBA? Come on!

They're marching as Obama ordered them in his speech a week ago.
