‘Not My Debt’: College Students Refuse Pledge to Pay Their Share of National Debt (generation, healthcare)

[SourD]

First they wouldn't redistribute grades, no they feel they don't owe anything to our national debt although Obama is making sure they will be saddled with a ton of it.

Would college students sign a pledge vowing to pay their share (about $47,000)? The answer?
Well, there was this: “I don’t contribute to the national debt.”
This: “I don’t have any debt.”
And this: “It’s not my debt.”
We’ll take that as a “no.” But those curious responses beg the question: Have these college students ever taken an economics class? “It’s not my debt.” Really? Watch below:

It isn't their debt, and it's not mine either.

Sure, young people can be spoiled... Older folks said the same thing about us many years ago...

They kind of have a point though, it really isn't their debt.....

It is ALL of our debt. Thanks to what is going on in DC.

Don't forget that they also will be on Mommy and Daddy's healthcare plans till they are 26.

Unfortunately, America's greatest generation isn't all that great. They're expecting to get back money from SS that was already spent on wasteful programs, some to benefit them (Bush's socialist medicare program being one). If the youth is expected to pay their share of the debt, America's "greatest generation" has to expect not to get SS.

I bet a whole lot of them don't think it's their debt because they're grabbing up all the financial aid and freebies they can. They are the problem not the solution.
