Let’s ask the professors if they would take a pay cut to make tuition cheaper.
Ask them, since professors get pensions and most people don't anymore, if they would be willing to pay 10% more in taxes to help pay the tuitions. Of course, AFTER you bait them in on the "should we forgive student loan questions". The few that say yes will be liars OR set up a "petition" sheet calling all professors @ said university to donate "X"% of their paycheck IN PERPETUITY to a faculty funded scholarship program. Then ask what % you can put them down for RIGHT NOW.
I love that idea!!!
exactly.
It's all of the administrative costs that force higher tuition. People with a big title want a full support staff to make them look powerful, even if it's not needed. A lot of what are called "BS" jobs, paper shufflers.
Terry Brogdon, you are a God.
These kids are very generous with other people’s money.
Liberals usually are. They aren't as generous with their own money.
@@michellefurness454 Well said, just look at the amount of charity work that is donated or funded by both parties, what you will find wont be very shocking.
That girls dad should immediately stop paying for her student loans because she's like yeah duck it whatever pay more
Just like Bernie!
Welcome to the milton friedman club.
Entitled Student: "I kinda want to keep my money"
Tax Payer: "Yeah. So do we"
Americans are so childish theyre against taxes going to anything but the military industrial complex.
I’d gladly pay more to help others. Youre a clown
Nimod: " I don't think and educated population is valuable to society, the workforce, or democracy."
@@nickcharles1284 "Nimod" Did you mean "nimrod"?
"I don't think *and* educated population..." Did you mean "*an*" educated population?
Looks like someone needs to go back to school to learn how not to embarrass themselves when typing just a single, condescending sentence.
Maybe in school, you'll learn why paying for other people's debts is a terrible idea.
YES
One of the rare times these students are being challenged to think critically.
And it *does* seem to be a challenge.
If blue states pulled their funding of your precious red states you’d go under xD
Liberals are more wealthy and educated than you, get over it snowflake
and most of them are failing the challenge...
Proof that a degree does not necessarily make you more intelligent.
To be fair, none of them gave a degree yet. But yeah I kind of agree.
Just take a look at Alexandria Cortez!
Ahh, they're still kids. Wait till they get a job and a mortgage.
book smarts and life/world smarts are like apples and oranges
It only makes you more knowledgeable on specialty that you're studying
Intelligent ≠ Knowlegde
People are so generous with someone else's money.
I'm sure they have the same ideology about home loans, car loans, credit card, LoL I never went to college but find this halarious.
That's called socialism.
Libtard student taught by neo-fascist lib college teaher: Gimme everything for free, help everybody, solve homeless, give more money...
Reality: We all need to pay, not just someone else
Libtard: .....Orange man bad!!!!!
@literally not z their behavior is fascist = oppression, silencing, etc. Typical sjw
@@jayrider2726 It's annoying they think as long as the "government" pays for it it's ok. Because it's much more complicated to understand where tax revenue comes from than asking your fellow students. The government is just a magic ball of money.
John Wayne said it best, "Life is tough, but it's tougher when you're stupid". These kids are living up to his words.
😂😂😂😂
Try telling a guy behind the cash register at a Mcdonalds: "Thanks for paying off my student loan debt" and understand how crazy that sounds.
Or the guy that can’t afford to send his children to college. Asking him to pay for somebody else’s kid is just wrong
That’s what the military says after they ripped their clothes.
This is the most brilliant perspective I've seen so far!
Dude at McDonald's is probably 40 years old and collecting government welfare
@@divinecomedian2 The dude with the college loans probably took 6 years to get an Associate's Degree in Liberal Arts after switching their major 4 times. Now the lower class people who are barely getting by get to pay more taxes in a systemically racist system where their wages get taxed MORE so white kids can get good paying management jobs to boss them around (debt-free).
"you could raise taxes for, you know, other people." What an entited waste of space.
I would agree 100% but she is the one who supposedly does not have any debt... Therefore, the way I perceive what she said is different compared to if she did have debt. The real question is is she willing to pay off other people's debt herself with higher taxes?
But she DID acknowledge that is other people paying for your stuff, at least implying that she does see the hypocrisy in her "raising other people's taxes" statement.
see what we get for two peoples romp in the sack?
@@GCMC-m2h they did cut off that part of the conversation though, you can kind of see her make a face and start to tilt her head sideways showing that removing debt and then raising taxes so "other people would be paying for your stuff" not fair
I think it's inaccurate to assume she doesn't care based on the footage from that interview
@@GCMC-m2h she did acknowledge she is selfish, but using that to base all these decisions on isn't so bad in my opinion. At least she is self-aware and wants all the money.
What's worse is these woketevists who have no job, living on unemployment claiming they are a victim because race and other bullshit but are just really lazy wanting all this socialistic "democratic" bullshit. They don't want to work hard, they want the rich people to work hard so they don't have to because #reparations or #whiteprivilege bullshit. I mean these people are selfish too, just they claim not to be because they "fight" for causes like climate change and other bullshit.
You can tell who pays their own and who is on daddy’s money
Or Affirmative Action Scholarships...
And what’s wrong with parents paying for an undergrad education? Why is it “daddy’s money”? Why put down students who have parents who saved for their education? My parents paid for my undergrad (i paid for my own grad school) and I full intend to do the same for my kids. Been contributing to a 529 since I was like 23, and am about to have my first kid at 31. Why does that make my kid less than anybody else? Stop putting down responsible people to promote the “victim” mentality. Take accountability and be proactive and applaud those who create opportunity, instead of putting them down.
Tyson I would feel a lot better about paying for my own stuff, rather my parents paying for everything.
Tyson My initial reaction was the same, but no blame or shame is designated. It’s merely a deduction based on the responses observed. And it’s correct.
@@stripeybeast whats wrong is that obviously people are not understanding what the value of a dollar means being that its not their own money. Makes them hypocrites, thats whats wrong with parents paying. Im sure the parents understand the value of money since they are paying everything, maybe we should ask their parents this question.
Video summary: “Students realize cancelling student debt is a bad idea when they come to terms with their own selfishness.”
Well in Eu there are lot of coutries that have free education and they are doing ok
@@LoopikCZE “wElL iN eU” when are people gonna stop comparing the third most populous country in the world to Euro trash. It doesn’t work here, our problem is public schools, not the funding.
I call bullshit
"Oh yeah, I'd pay more tuition!"
Same breath : "I don't pay my tuition though."
Uhuh.
“I make my money and I kinda wanna keep my money.”
Welcome to being a conservative. Get used to it.
Being a conservative is essentially believing that you can spend your money far more efficiently than the government can.
Welcome to adulting in general.
David Burke the government will spend 1000 on something a citizen will spend 10 on. It also creates monopolies. Democrats today want everyone to be employed by government....because that’s gonna work great!...
😂
I have never understood why me wanting to keep more of my hard earned money makes me greedy, but those wanting to take my hard earned money for their pet causes get a pass?
Here's an idea, how about everyone pay their own debt and leave the hard working taxpayers out of it.
what right always avoid is the stupid cost. and they have the money to reduce the cost to a better rate. crazy education and healthcare cost.
Starman609 why is it so hard to think about free tuition? You already pay for everyone’s school for grades pre-K to 12th. The rest of the world already pays for free college, why can’t we?
beachbum8842 yep, I’m the commie. Even though I’m doing the most American thing, which is debating and free speech while your trying to slander my name with traitorous talk and hinder my rights as an American.
Vitex1955 I fully agree with this as well! Professors get paid way too much! Now school teachers get paid too little. There does need to be a balance.
They say make the worker pay even though they are going to school to BECOME the worker.
You will pay, one way or another, so take some personal responsibility and dont force people that chose to not go to college to cover your bill.
Higher education is an industry, and no amount of money juggling will change that.
"Like", "You know" "I guess" - Higher Ed at its best!
Just to recap:
you choose superior education to improve yourself and find better jobs where you will earn more.
BUT: you do not want to pay for it: others have to pay for you
EXCEPT: when you are finally working and earning good money, you don't want to pay for the new students.
It makes sense. Sure.
You need to remember all these people are never been out there really! Still under the wings of their parents, hence their comment is like talking with a drunkard at the bar. That is why I don't send my kid straight to college, I will make my kid enter the workforce for couple years before they are going to higher ed... IF they decided higher ed is for them!
@Genifer Romero but it is your generation's fault to breed cry babies though! I know you blamed this generation, but it is in your hands generation that this generation become cry babies! Half of it is your generation's fk up !
Not only that, you are also forcing others who did not want to go there to pay for you.
@@DanishTroll87 I don't want to pay tax as I live off grid, I essentially only think I should pay tax for for internet as I am utilizing this great country internet infrastructure and cell phone. I defend my own property, In the last decade I probably only used public road like twice in a year. I pave my own road (in figurative and literally kind of way as I really paved the road within my estate), but I still have to pay taxes! In other word, I was forced to pay taxes so that everyone else can live their "normal" live for decades now! If you see in my perspective, you finally can say what is another thing or two that you now, again, be forced to pay for everyone else that you didn't, isn't, and probably will not... even going to use. It is what it is!
@Genifer Romero you know what is believe? It means it doesn't matter it is true or wrong you just have to believe, you old are part of the problems, so quit blaming solely on younglins, for Lord sake, have a bit of decency! No shyt the young have the same shyt mentality like you, just have to believe it ain't happening right? Problem solved!
Once again, being educated and being intelligent are NOT the same thing
It’s indoctrination not education!!!!
jlm10181978 good point
I think you meant, having a degree and being intelligent are not the same thing.

"I kinda wanna keep my money".... welcome to the republican party.

K Martins oh good they are mugging us less. “Thanks”
@@Bob-mo4no you're an idiot.
james brinkman taxation is theft I don’t care who is stealing from me I just know theft is immoral. I’m not going to praise some one because they stole 5% less than some one else
Isn’t it nice how liberals are so generous with someone else’s money
The problems with socialism always come down to the fact that capitalists have to earn the money to pay for socialism.
"People should pay more taxes to finance it"
"Would you pay more taxes?"
"...No"
Everything's ok when you appropriate other people's money. SMH.
4estrose you realize taxes and federal grants are paying for the maintenance of public state colleges
You know why everything is expensive? Simple, democrats don't know anything about economics. Only a businessman knows. High taxes & wages doesn't work, it brings hyperinflation , and lack of liquidty/funds. High taxes & higher wages are socialism / communism (where government control everything)
Capitalism ( is where the people controls their own means of production )
The minimum wage laws, tax laws, & and all this bs rules are all government backed. It does not work. People who came from America legally know what's it like to come from a country where government controls everything.
@@dawrldizmike Why do we need public colleges when we could do either homeschooling, charter colleges, private college, or online colleges which makes it more substantially cheaper. Competition > monopolies (government backed)
America was founded behind competition.
Leif C. You understand the problem with free market capitalism is that it doesn’t support competition it supports capital. Which is why we have these laws because capital saw fit to work children and own people in America. And capital now thinks it’s okay to shrink the labor force so in turn the market is going to crash because people aren’t spending money. And without demand there is no market.
Leif C. Because there have always and will always be monopolies in capitalism it’s the natural end point. There are private online and charters idiot the reason people don’t use them is price in comparison . Larger schools set market trends still which is why even online universities charge thousands for courses and if they did undercut public schools guess what would happen. They’d be bought because capitalism supports capital not competition.
“I feel like” the phrase destroying an entire generation
"Like Totally" !
100%
Two generations!
Yup
Exactly. Quite frankly, I don’t care how you feel…
Saddens me that only two students had a rational and appropriate answer.
The generosity mysteriously ends as soon as payback options actually trace back to the students themselves. You could almost hear the clicking of their brain cells as they were actually finally forced to critically think about this issue and came to realize that they ARE going to be paying this debt back one way or another :)

Classic
Anyone that supports any form of government has this same mentality to varying extent. You have NO right to anything someone else produces and neither does government
Bernie Sanders walks into a bar and says “Everybody gets a round on me! Now, who’s paying?”
OK, hippies, I'm going to say this one more time. Your debts are not someone else's responsibility.
But, you see, they want "reforms" so that they ARE someone else's responsibility. Other people should pay their fair share of... you know, like, my bills.
While I agree with the general sentiment of your statement the simple fact is that it is not really their fault. The lenders which in this case is the government are preying upon naive fools. You can say that is the kids fault for being naive, but who is responsible for educating these kids. The very same government that is taking advantage of them. It is the government schools that have failed to teach them about personal finance. It is the government schools that has counseled them to take out these loans with their high school "guidance counselors". The predator is in charge of the whole process. How do these poor kids have any chance.
@@acvarthered May be, but I think parents are responsible for guiding their "naive children." There are also naive adults who enter into foolish yet legally binding financial agreements. But in either case it's wrong to penalize _other_ people for those debts. The government that robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.
@@DeadAbeVigoda And who educated the parents? State run education is and always has been an indoctrination machine. Also is it right to penalize people because the have idiot parents?
I agree it is wrong to have taxpayers bail out the students. The tax payers are not to blame either. There is really only one party at blame here. It is the government, and there is only one response to a tyrannical out of control government, and that is the 2nd amendment. It may not be popular, but the truth seldom is.
@ gold/silver as national currency. (JFK STYLE)
"We need to make it harder to get the student loans. I think the issue with anybody can get as much as they want is causing this."
That guy gets it.
Also, because private banking is out, and The Feds have taken it over, no one is looking at the fields of study & likely incomes being adequate to pay back the loans. It has been setup to fail.
1st don't force students to take classes that are not in their field of study. You don't need diversity or women's studies to be an Engineer. You could eliminate 30% of classes by doing this.
From a friend working in hospital debt collection: We will always go harder after those who have a proven record of paying their bill than those who do not because we have to get the money from somewhere and since those people have already paid before we know they are more likely to pay again. This is why if you have paid your hospital bill in the past we will call more, send more mail and eventually be more likely to send the debt to an outside collection agency. We are less willing to work with those previous payers and more willing to work with the ones who never pay because anything we get from them is more than we expected anyhow.
That's paraphrasing, and probably does not represent all hospitals, but it seems like the same kind of mentality as this student loan debt situation to me.
Asking a student with debt, if they want their debt forgiven, is like asking a convicted criminal in jail, if he would like his sentence commuted .
glidercoach You got that right. Making the tax payers pay for students debt is like asking the murdered family members if they want the murder to go free. NO. They don’t and the tax payers don’t want to pay for your schooling.
@@stillwatching3255
...or asking someone with a mortgage if they want their house paid off!
The Democrats are offering whatever they can think of for free to get votes.
Healthcare...
Student loans...
$1000 a month...
Free US citizenship...
It's so obvious.
@@glidercoach Wow, nobody is proposing free healthcare. People will pay higher taxes instead of expensive health insurance premiums. Also, how are you going to get votes with promising people "free US citizenship" when non-US citizens can't vote?
@mld
Thanks for saying what I was going to say.
@@MattSezer then you have a nation full of hypochondriacs that go to the hospital for a sneeze or need their fix of pharmaceutical drugs? You pay for your own life. I'm more willing to pull you out of a burning car than pay your hospital visit. It's funny how people cry for a $15 minimum wage because they cant afford to live off of current minimum wage but then you want them to pay for a nation's healthcare. Medicaid is a joke as it is. My son needs eye glasses to see but the medicaid covered glasses break when a gust of wind hits them. I end up paying for a much better pair because it's a never ending cycle with medicaid covered glasses.
“I was a socialist until I got my first check and saw the tax.” - Kevin O’Leary
So someone who has never had to pay real socialist tax's
That s the real problem isn t ? The right totally agrees with the morality of socialism, with the idea that you have a duty to serve others, that being selfless is noble. They totally agree on the morality, just not on the practicality. How uninspiring! If something is right, we ll find a way to pay for it. The right we ll lose until he challenges the idea that service to those in need is a moral ideal
@@maximemeis2867 Bernie could sell a couple of his swank houses to help pay their debt. He's the one most of those kids probably support. he should support them
TwoFatTwoCarry Man yeah, which are even worse
@Mark Branham it s most importantly unjust. Millionnaires and billionaires don t owe you free stuff simply because they produce a lot
Perfect examples of why we should raise, not lower the voting age. They demonstrate a general lack of understanding of economics, etc. The radical level of entitlement, idealism, and self-absorption is astounding.
Once someone says “I feel like” before they speak just know their feelings will override any logic and facts. Best bet is to disengage that conversation with that individual immediately.
My favorite was the girl who said "No, I wanna keep my money" yep, so do the rest of us
Only that most people have a lot more money then students, this is like asking should we tax lower income families more to pay off student loans. No we should take the money from people who already have more then enough. Most families could afford say for example 100$ a month extra, most students could not.
Lol your comment makes no sense. No one said you had to spend money on college or that you’d be paying for these people. You just assume you’ll be paying more tuition? I bet you’re not even in college so this wouldn’t even affect you in the slightest, in fact it if happened it would only affect college goers and to send a message it’s not right people would stop going to college. Also no lawmaker would ever allow debt forgiveness to be paid off by newer students. If they remove all student loan debt it’ll be a straight removal with no ways to get that interest money back. Student loans are basically scams and the government allows it to happen and the people can’t vote against it because elected officials don’t always vote the way they should.
@@williamphillips2671 Actually you are the one who is not making sense. Did you even pay attention to the video ? Some people ask for at least partial forgiveness of student debt due to corona, at least for the poorest students, but how do you finance that ? So they asked in the video if they would pay more tuition so the poorest students could have get a partial forgiveness of their student debt. I am assuming nothing here, it was the question in the video. PAY ATTENTION
@@terryfeynman A lot of students are just not good enough to get a scholarship, and too lazy to get a job while they are in school... From 14 to 18, you have a lot of time to get money... I mean thousands of dollars...
A lot of young people just want to party for free on your money...

"I'm in favor of my dad paying more money". Bet her dad feels differently
She'll feel differently if she gets a job and has to pay her own way forward. When she sees she's paying til the day she croaks for kids to go to school for free, she'll realize "hey, I worked at a crappy job with an awful boss for many years and I deserve to keep what little I make" that would be a great moment to see!
I am positive her dad works hard and would have a heart attack if he saw her say that.
@@generalzod7959 She will just get a shitty job with low pay after college and turn further LEFT and be another harpy screaming down the street hollering that white man is bad and a racist.
When her tells her "can't afford yours, I'm paying off the girl down the street"
These people have zero empathy.
So it's four years later, most of these people have graduated. I wonder what they would say now...
Absolutely
But we will never find out
Hope is not lost. There are still clear headed, straight thinking young people in the world. I feel better. Thanks.

Dad worked so hard, he didn't spend enough time with his daughter to teach her the lessons of life.
Wonder how her dad feels about it.
Hey! The kid @04:48 got it right. Tuition started spiraling upward about 40 years ago when the gov't made getting loans for college much easier to get. That change put more money into the "system" and colleges responded by raising tuitions. Then instructors and admin personnel began demanding salary increases -- and the vicious cycle was born. The easier the gov't makes college loans, the more money there is available to the system, the higher tuitions become in order for each school to get their "cut" of the seemingly free money. The cycle won't stop until the gov't makes getting a college loan hard to get, thus reducing the number of people eligible to go to college.
Oh, so me paying your YOUR degree so YOU can get a $100K a year job right out of college is good for me..... got it. What would society ever do without all these graduates that don't even know state capitols or history? We NEED them so bad. They are so precious. They shouldn't ever have to drive a used car or struggle a single day in their lives.

We should raise taxes to the wealthy... what is the point of the rich getting richer? We need a capitalism country however we want most people to be debt free so they could contribute to the society or else they might go bankrupt or they might give up because of that loan amount

"Every job we need requires a degree" is the biggest lie ever told to my generation and the generations after me.
I agree
I think she means the job she needs to make alot of money but wants others to pay for her , selfish. self absorbed you of today
I work a good, decent paying job, and I have no degree.
While ~90% of all American self made milioners earned their money by investing in real estate, which does not reaquire any degree whatsoever
GHOSTfaceKILLr74 did the dean of your college hold a gun to your head to force you to decide, or did you just believe the story your counselor told you? Ultimately, by way of your family or yourself, you’re the adult that signs the agreement, whether or not you listen to or received us parents’ advice.
I get a lot of "Everyone should pay, but not me, I don't want to pay" vibes from these people
Fast forward 10 years when they are living paycheck to paycheck as a single mom, and then I bet they won't want to pay for anybody else's anything.
"every job requires a degree"
False. Mike Rowe would like to talk to you.
I'm a high school dropout with a criminal record, no GED, no college. I'm not making a lot of money right now, but I can get on-the job training in automotive collision repair and still make around 60k.
So you’re telling me that if I work hard and show up to work on a daily basis, that I will make money? That seems like an absurd thought. I must get someone with a liberal arts degree to look into this.
I think what she was implying was that every job she wants requires a degree.
To be fair there are a lot of jobs that require a degree. For example, one can't feasibly have a career as an engineer, or physicist without a degree. In many states to be a licensed engineer you have to have an engineering degree, but for someone to get that degree shouldn't be on the tax payer through student loan forgiveness. If you're going to get a degree you better have a plan to use it, or be able to pay it off. Otherwise figure something else out.
Billy Edwards I wouldn’t be so sure, I have had people tell me that you need a masters degree to get a minimum wage job. Obviously they are exaggerating, but they honestly believe that you have to hold a degree to do anything worth while, which just isn’t true.
@@iamcosma7065 Well for certain fields a minimum of a bachelors degree is required, i.e. engineering. I know many people with engineering degrees making at least $73,000 starting out in the Dallas area and living comfortably in high COL areas. In other fields a masters is minimum and they're not minimum wage jobs that they so claim (it is a massive over exaggeration), but these jobs don't pay like engineering so they feel cheated by the system.
In reality the only way you're making big money is to fill a field that is in high demand, again look at engineers. If you get a degree in psychology then yes the minimum will be a masters with slightly higher than average pay. Why? Because we have a free market that decides and the demand is not high enough for the supply.
“Every job requires a degree” me sitting here living comfy with no degree with a good job😂
Me too
Hey, me too
I never finished college yet my loans are paid off
If i didn't finish my degree when I did and had to make the choice now, i would learn a trade instead. The return on investment just isn't there nowadays. Also, i went part time and worked full time so i came out debt free. Most kids are lazy and not willing to do that.
I did get a degree, an AS. However, shortly after I enlisted in the USN and had 4 years to pay off my loans with no interest. That wasn't the sole reason I enlisted but it helped. The enlistment bonus I got for having the degree helped as well.
Of course that was 35 years ago. But that degree has kept me comfortable financially ever since.

“Yes people should pay off my debt”
“No I don’t want to pay off others debt”
it's because they don't have the money. In a progressive tax system, the lower income brackets pay less in tax. That's how it works.

Students are in the lowest income group, of course they can't pay.
Ask them again when they have a job with stable income.
The real issue here isn't about debt. It's about rising costs of tuition which keeps going up. We need to fix that.
I like the one girl
"I guess you COULD raise taxes, but then youre asking other people to pay for YOUR stuff"
Shes almost there!
And she's the one with zero debt! Yep, pretty much close to being there!
So at what point do you call yourself a country? Because if everyone is ONLY involved with themselves, like republicans want, then you don't have one. We have roads, bridges, hospitals, libraries and schools because we ALL joined in together and pitched in. Every other civilized country in the world has health care for it's citizens that DOESN'T bankrupt them for daring to get sick. We're the ONLY one selfish and stupid enough to allow that. Independence is one thing, abandonment is entirely another. Not to mention, what could people accomplish if they WEREN'T tied into a job for fear of insecurity? Imagine what you could accomplish with your life if you didn't have to worry about every little issue being enough to cause you to go homeless. You've bought into a bill of goods pushed by psychopaths.
And just remember ONE basic thing: While you're paying to help others, others are doing the same for YOU. Stop being a selfish idiot. Ben Franklin tried to tell us to be smarter than that. United we stand, divided we fall. And we're falling, thanks to the right and their psychopathy. Cooperation gets you MUCH further than being an island unto yourself. You would think that growing to adulthood would teach you that lesson, apparently it's too much for you to grasp.

Why would college benefit from the same treatment?

Many other countries already provide tuition free public college, so why the hell can't the so-called "greatest country on earth" figure that out as well?
@@BootBizarre Nothing is free. Every country that has "free" anything is taxed to hell and back to pay for it whether you use whatever the free thing is or not. Some buds of mine in Europe are surprised by how much I get paid, but we do the math and they take note their taxes are higher to pay for all this supposedly free things. So that's the difference, we don't have free sub-par facilities and products. We have fairly expensive private services because no one takes the people charging to task. (meaning making them stop inflating their prices to astronomical degrees)
My wife and I go out to eat occasionally in a nearby college town. The restaurants are jam-packed with college students, and the parking lots are filled with new cars and tricked out pickup trucks. The young men and women are dressed out in the latest styles. I'm glad they are enjoying life, too bad that they can't pay their tuition.
To be fair though, I'm sure some of those people that serve you and cook your food at these establishments are college students.
@@hiccup1dt102 of course, and thereby getting additional education- hard work, sacrifice and delayed gratification. Don't mind helping- I just see a lot of wasteful abuse. But also know that the costs of tuition/fees/books have soared. Need a better way!
When older generations say they paid for college with a part time minimum wage job, they really did. I'm not sure if you did, but anyways. At my local public college, after my scholarships (and I have the highest merit scholarship), it would cost me 15,000 a year. I would be able to pay it off at minimum wage if and only if I worked full time. And that's really cutting it close. If I go to a private college the least I'll have to pay is about 9,000 right now. So I could pay that off if I had a full-time job at minimum wage. But you can't really do that and still graduate from college.
I'm grateful to have so much in scholarships, but should I really have to rely so solely on them?
Last note. Did you consider that the college kids you see in expensive clothes and out on the town either go out only occasionally and have some nice clothes for when they do, or that the kids you're seeing could be the richer kids who have college paid for by their parents?
@@abigaylegeisel yes , I really did. I worked friday-sat-sun-mon nites, 11pm to 7am as a dispatcher, and seasonally as a tax examiner mon-fri 6pm-10pm at regional IRS office. During school breaks I got to work extra hours if I was lucky.. i couldn't afford a private college,, or to go out of state,, and could only carry 12 sem. hours at a time. My classes were all morning to early afternoon, but graduated, even made the dean list a couple of times. I did apply for and receive financial aid, took 10 years after graduating to fully repay. But done.
@@abigaylegeisel you’re living in Lala land if you don’t think those college students save nice clothes for eating out. I’m in college currently, and you should see the campuses, kids who are thousands in debt, buying new Nike shoes, new clothes, drive new cars, etc, not just off of mommy’s money but they take up LOTS of debt. They are extremely wasteful, this video is the best example. Getting off debt free isn’t something only achievable through scholarships, btw, there is community college which can be paid for very easily, I am debt free and I have paid out of pocket, but I’ve also found tax deductions, grants, etc. plus, I save my checks. I don’t go buy the latest iPhone like these kids do... idk when you last went to school but don’t cut them slack, they’re wasteful as hell
4:30 see now that is sound logic. And it is something that maybe should be implemented instead of others paying for random college degrees. Especially if many people straight drop out of college.
Glad to see at least a couple of those kids have a grip on reality.
He's asking the wrong question. He should ask, "Once you've graduated, how would you like to be billed every month to pay other students' college loans?" Then let's see if these witless wonders still think college should be "free" for everyone.

These videos are not filmed correctly. Questions to students should be asked and answers should be followed up immediately with the question of their response, not half way through the video.
When a guy with a camera gets you to think harder than your over paid professors ever have.
When a guy teaches you something for free on the street in 5 minutes, which a college you pay $10k+ a year can't teach you in 4 years

This is why none of them should be allowed to vote.
Let them start working and paying their own bills before they vote.

@@Mathew_Thomas I wouldn't mind a history/political aptitude test to vote by any means (know the real differences between types of governments, which forms of government are used by major countries, and why they have succeeded or failed over the years)...

And for the love of God, we need mandatory Federal Voter ID Law with no ridiculous loopholes, and it needs to be strictly enforced in every State, with HARSH penalties for voter fraud/manipulation (prison/fines/loss of voter rights).

@@jesseglenturner absolutely! Votes should be done on paper only (Soros who owns politicians should not own voting machines)under surveillance with armed guards. No votes enter or leave the building, all counts should be done under strict supervision, and anyone caught cheating should be publically executed.
Then we need term limits on ALL government jobs from the DMV all the way to the president (Congress too) and no backroom deals, and no dual citizenship. Representatives should be required to work from the district they represent and not in the DC bubble surrounded by special interest groups.
Next we need to actually enforce our constitution. The 9th amendment is very clear that they shall not interpret or construe the rights of the people in order to block them.
18US code 241 says anyone blocking or infringing the rights of others will be jailed for 10 years.
Not sure what is so hard about keeping the oath to protect our rights, but it seems all of them have a problem with that.
Lastly we need to undo every unconstitutional law and agency that has been added. IRS, FBI, CIA, ATF, NFA, Patriot act, NSA, ect... All need to go.

1:08 - 1:17 She wasn't advocating that view. She was calling it out for what it would mean, politely but firmly. And she's the same one with zero debt. I'd say she gets it right.
The DIRECT SENTENCE after that, she clarified that would just be "other people paying for it", insinuating she felt that wasn't right. And then a minute later, clarified that point yet again. Come on people, be better than this lol.
@Forrest Hunter Most never do. All of these idiots are wasting the money for colleges and Uni.
It's always easier to spend someone else's money, and it is amazing how those opinions will change once these young people go to work and see the never-ending taxes being taken from their paychecks. That's when reality sets in and attitudes change.
The ones giving their personal debt numbers are not being truthful. Most of it is debt that their parents are paying off.

It is amazing that they will absolutely say they are for student loan removal. But, asked to pay more taxes and or increase their tuition to pay for the other students (all of a sudden - they start to vacillate). Now, monies come from them directly.
These are Libs in training - I can use your monies to fight student loans. But, I do not want my monies used to do the same.
Libs in training.
Yup, its pathetic. The way it is now you can choose to go a route other than college, choose a cheap college, or choose an expensive college. You can choose to commute and save money or live on campus and have a lot more fun. You can choose to work and pay some/all while you go, or just live off credit. You can choose to go to school at 18, serve in the military, or work a few years in between. You can choose to focus your money on it early in life and pay it off quick, or pay the minimum for a longer amount of time.
The way the system works now, we all have choices that all lead to different outcomes. The way the these selfish, nasty libs want it those who make good choices just get punished on behalf of those who made poor choices.
What scares me is I'm a millennial, and I busted my butt, worked full time, took courses part time, and graduated debt free. What I did was smart. If the government forgives student loans, the smart thing becomes to just borrow every dime you can, pay as little as possible, and just trust there will be more loan forgiveness in the future. If people think tuition cost and student loans are a problem now, just wait until not only do all the people currently making poor decisions continue to make poor decisions, but the good decision makers also come to the conclusion that being stupid financially is the smart thing to do.
She said tax others but then later says she's selfish and wants to keep her money.
The amount of people like this that exist is amazing..
She also said she was 100% on that
the first step is recognizing you have a problem, that's a huge step in my book considering how ignorant people tend to be
It's because "other people" is nebulous. If she met some "other people" and they explained that they worked for their money, are trying to pay for a house, want to take a family vacation sometime in the next 5 years, etc, she would change her mind.
Partially they are vapid but a lot of it is that they have never thought about anything. They memorize and parrot back facts. They are not challenged to think critically or even challenged on their beliefs. It is encouraging to see a few of them realize that they haven't examined their positions after just a few questions. This is a very good way to help them, on their own, recognize the indoctrination they have had done to them by the educational system and society at large. This is how we reach them- they won't listen to boring lectures and most of them avoid confrontation.
