When college was a whole whop cheaper than these days. With rent and other living expenses sky high these days I don't know how any disadvantaged students can attend at all. I slept on the all night Muni buses and park benches quite often waiting for my funds to come through back then. Thats freekin reality, MITT F@#KHEAD!!! I wouldn't have a successful career now without those funds.
Is this what a country in its post-bush era shape needs? God I hate the ones that grew up with the silver spoon up their a$$...
