Okay, I won’t get you started on student loans, much, it’s like a life tax reaped by the finance industry including an army of accountants dotting I’s.

Unpaid interns, where people go to get job experience with all the prestige of a Walmart parking lot mall cop.

In the future as knowledgable AI routines have superseded much of the typical employment of yesteryear what is the reasoning for higher ed costing much of anything? Even though one wonders how higher ed got to cost so much in the past in the first place. Hmmmm, is higher ed a business?

You know, since I just had my first swig of morning coffee I’d be remiss not to mention the higher ed loan shark legal team and their army of slave robocalling AI’s (possibly including some of the work-study students, that way they can be abused getting educated and later paying off same) spam calling the nation at all hours looking for John & Jane Doe’s behind on their student loans, even though a lot of those AI’s could be hired/employed from South America or Anystan, Asia. I mean how could we get through the day without the endless incoming calls waiting for the victim to say ‘hello’ only to respond with a series of clicking noises and possibly, after a calculation, plus some non-descript pause, a determination is made regarding playing one of several pre-recording messages, not the least of which may be geared to harvesting more of one’s personal information for unknown uses? I just can’t say enough about Mericka’s dick squad legal team.
