Then there is the question, what is the point of college? We go because we want to get a good degree to get a good job. But once you have that degree, sometimes getting that ‘dream job’ doesn’t happen. You have two choices. Get what job you can do or go back to school either into Law or get a Master’s Degree.
Maybe the people high up who are spending the nations money on personal vacations, jets, etc… should get a pay cut. In fact why not Hollywood since they have millions? Hell, some of the celebrities get things for free while the rest of the world has to work to get that shiny new toy.
So if the wealthy took a little pay cut, will that help the rest of the nation?
