27. Kids going to college don't realize there used to be financial aid

Before the 1980's tuition and living costs were more in line with what you could earn at crappy paying jobs.

There was more financial aid to go around, even for middle class kids.

You didn't have to go in hock for tens of thousands of dollars to get a degree.
