Hold the fuck up. The Federal pell grant program gives out grants to students who make below the federal poverty line. The same students who take pell grant money also use other government assistance programs....

Why the hell did you get a pell grant?

Because GI Bill is untaxable income. I had zero income to report on my income tax forms so I qualified for PELL and TAP.

Because I was poor while in college? The financial aid office at my school had everyone fill out the paperwork, shrug.

Offering to shed your blood in return for a little money isn't exactly stealing.

I was just joking. The student loan/college cost thing over here is crazy.

I don't think we should adopt your system though. It needs radical change but nothing radical in the way yours is. I could explain further if you care.
please do. our system isn't perfect either, especially the tripling of fees in the last few years. but the loan is a very small apr, and we get (nationally) large grants also

Umm, ok. If I had gone to college at 18 my parents income would've qualified me for PELL and TAP then too. So whatever you say, kid.

Anyway, the point was that college isn't really expensive here. Tuition minus the Pell Grant left a gap of $1800 to cover out of pocket per semester. That's hardly going to send someone to the poorhouse. State schools are cheap in America. The people that bitch about student loans are the ones that, of their own free will, chose to go to more expensive private colleges, or chose to go to college outside of their home state. They have no one to blame but themselves.

No, I'm not. My GI Bill covered tuition anyway, the PELL was just extra pocket money.

You leeched off of the tax payers for your pell grant. The same way you sold your soul to the military industrial complex for your GI bill.

You are the exact opposite of the whole libertarian image you try to project. This amuses the Macbeth.

Whatever you say kid. I sold my soul? Sorry I wasn't born with a BMW in my driveway. You going to make fun of me for growing up poor next? Such a cool kid you are. I guess that's why you have so many friends.

Again, I'm just pointing out that college tuition in America is not nearly as awful as people would have you believe.
