She is going to lose this election LOL
By “rich kids” I take it that she means those OWS retards.
Well, when only the rich went to college, there was no such thing as african American studies. I could live with that.
why must everyone go to college?? many work their way thru college
Well then, we had better get the economy going so those poor student wannabe's can become rich so they can go to college!
The one thing that might save Todd Akin: His opponent might just be a bigger idiot than he is.
This lady is determined to lose this race when it was handed to her on a silver platter, isn’t she?
That’s odd, I worked my way through a BA and an MBA with no federal help and no loans. I worked two jobs and lived in a slum for the BA. Did a bit better for the MBA but paid for it myself.
Corporate scholarships are an excellent alternative to tax dollars.
I dated a woman who was sponsored by Hershey foods and then did her internship with them as a sociologist developing marketing methods.
Untrue. Penn is picking up my student’s whole bill. Thank you private sector!! (That’s successful Americans to you, Mr President.)
“she mentioned she’s had three 17 year old sons but wouldn’t loan them money,...”
So typical of a big time liberal. First blame the rich (productive achievers, capital sources), say government does it better and then be sure the “benefit” you are in favor of is on someone else’s dime.
She is probably well off (as you can’t be a politician in D.C. for long without being cut into a lot of good deals), yet she is comfortable with her kids getting taxpayer funded college loans.
Also, the ready availability of cheap student loans allows colleges to keep on raising tuition instead of looking for cost savings in their budgets. Government intervention in any market situation makes the prices paid rise or out of sync with the product value.
A business associate used to work for Claire as an accountant. He tells me she was real straight with the dollars and cents as an auditor.
Her sad performance is just more evidence that liberals find it too easy to adopt an alternative reality of their own design when it advances their ideological agenda.
Claire doesn’t care to recall just where the Federal Government got the money to be so generous with. In case of 40% of the dollars being spent in this fiscal year, those dollars come from the future because the money was borrowed, on Claire’s vote. She is a freeloader of the worse sort.
The Federal government caused the high price of college.
After WW2 college was relatively cheap (if you didn’t go to a prestigious ivy leage school.)
Along came government and student loans. Now you can borrow money to go to school. The schools now know that they can charge more, because the government will loan it to you, so tuition increases faster than anything else. You now need to borrow even more, so they can charge even more.
Now it’s 2012 and my daughter graduates with a degree in nurning and $82K in loans.

Without the Federal government, college would be a lot cheaper and we’d have more than enough money to pay for it.
right now, only the broke graduate(sometimes)
THe next big crash will be student loans.
McCaskill is a Moron.....
My Friend grew up on the poor side of town...worked small jobs, saved his money studied hard and went to UC Berkeley
He never got or asked for a single cent of help from anyone.
He even waited tables for the Rich Democrat Kids...ALL WHITE
who were there and teased Him for being sooo Low-class.
He did Fine and even is a Born again Christian, Republican,
He was not poisoned by Berkeleys Leftist Agenda.
Like all Democrats...They Have to Lie.
College can easily be replaced by the videos of the Feynman lectures and some inexpensive local TA homework review sessions.
