[quote=Anonymous]Graduate students are different from the "poor" in several ways. First, it is very rare for a graduate student to have a kid. It is extremely rare for them to have more than one. Most people would not like their kid to go to school in a bad neighborhood. Graduate students often live either on campus or in bad neighborhoods. Most people would not like their kid to live without a coat. Many graduate students survive without coats. Most kids need to go to the doctor at some point. Graduate students often do without even necessary health care and often have subsidized health care through the University. Graduate students have subsidize (through housing health care) not available to families. They can also make live style sacrifices that people with kids strive to avoid.[/quote]
