[quote=Anonymous]One of my husband's friends is in a similar situation. He has a PhD in 18th century English poetry. He's 39 years old, is married, has a kid, and is on welfare and food stamps. He's never held a job other than some adjunct positions here and there. Part of me gets it. I don't want to stifle the creativity of our country just because there may or may not be a job waiting for everyone after graduation. The other part of me, however, wants him to STFU about "the system" and its evils. He's living off the system and then complains that we aren't communist enough to provide him more. Whatever. But, this doesn't have anything to do with the guy in the article who says "you can't eat prestige." He sounds fully self-aware.[/quote]
