[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's amazing how many people attack families for not saving enough, even when they're already saving hundreds or thousands a month. That's blaming the victim.

The real issue is that colleges have become predatory and too damn expense. Colleges are wasting so much money. The brand-new football stadiums, the luxury faculty lounges, all the administrative bloat. Tenured professors barely teaching because they're spending all their time on some pet social justice issue. Your tuition dollars are basically just fueling the culture wars.

[b]Colleges are strip mining the middle class. [/b]Middle class parents should not have to basically take a vow of poverty just so that one day they can maybe send their kids to college.[/quote]

This. Colleges behave like predatory business where they use the financial aid process to figure out the absolute maximum amount of money they can extract from a family. They will even grab the home equity until there's literally nothing left. [/quote]
