YZE wrote I think the amount of college tuition is an absolute joke.. How do you expect someone to go in to a college and get "Good job" and pay off debt for the rest of their life.

15k to get in to a state school. Jokes!

If your parents actually saved up money, you wouldn't have to take out loans at crazy interest rates. My parents are smart with there money and paid out if pocket for my college.

Besides the way I see it, my generation is less competitive. They have no desire to work hard, it makes getting the higher paid jobs I want even easier.

My parents always told me that sodas from a soda machine would only cost 5 cents, Seriously ONLY 5 CENTS. Today i bought a Dr. Pepper for $1.75 from a Machine, i was hesitant to actually buy it as i could have gotten a LG at MD for $1.09. But my mom offered so i was like sure.

At my School i don't get much homework aside from reading like 1-2 chapters before the next day quiz. I swear there is like a Quiz or Benchmark like every other day. No to mention the whole "Social States" (Thank God i don't have a problem with it anymore, wasn't really much but the Popular and the wannabe "Thugs") that most teens have to face and that puts a bunch of pressure that gets in the way of school work.

Im with you here, the times do get difficult. I believe its because of the new teaching technique that the new President wants for the kids. We have to worry about EOCs,PSAT,SATs All early on, like really just let us be kids. We grow up so fast anyways, why make us into robots.

I think i remember hearing something about next year freshmen they get to choose the courses they want for what job they intend to go into. And We don't get that, out grades have to live with the old standers of the default courses from years back. They should have done that when i was still a freshman, it would have been a lot better then learning something you probably will Never use, Of course unless your job specify it.

Well at least i have just a few more years till I graduated HS, then i will be on my own..

.Seems like just yesterday i was playing in sand with my transformers now im just about around the corner from paying old Uncle Sam my hard earn dollars.

You're going to be hit with debt like a freight train coming out of college either way. Paying back textbooks and student loans. And I think people lost the strive to work once Obama made the decision to allow the government to pay those who don't work.
