I hate to say it, but I totally agree with Perry (and Scott) on this one.
The system is TOTALLY PERVERTED now and should be illegal. If you look at “financial aid” in Ivy League schools, you’ll find that they no longer give any based on merit - it’s all based on ‘need’.
So they have a super-high sticker price that only families making $250k or more can afford flat out, and everyone else pays ‘based on their need’. This is SICK. I recently bought a (non-UAW) car and I paid ‘based on the price’. In fact, I don’t know any other product where you have to submit tax forms to know what the cost is...but you have to do that if you want to send your kid to college and you’re not loaded.
I’d love to see this system broken up, once and for all.
The new social justice mantra isn't race anymore, over the last decade it's been morphed into income -- the poor.
