"Senate HELP Committee Chairman Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, has said the companies are more loyal to shareholders than they are to students."

As opposed to many public schools being more loyal to teacher unions than they are to students...

I thought for a moment that this may be about the Washington Post's school: Kaplan University.

They push prospective students to get government loans to attend and then the students find out the path leads to nowhere and they are then deeply i debt to "Uncle Sam".

Kaplan is the only part of the Washington Post's entities that is making any money right now. In effect, the Post is being financed by the Federal government.

Senator Harkin, allow me to introduce you to the legal concept known as "fiduciary responsibility". It's one of those Law thingies. Of course as a US Senator you undoubtedly have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about.

Now go back to your room and continue dribbling on your bib you brain dead moron.
