For Poor, Leap to College Often Ends in a Hard Fall

[duffyduff]

1. I am convinced

the economic elite have pushed to make college unaffordable for the vast majority of people unless they go into tons of debt in order to weed people out of upward mobility.

I have long felt this way about homeownership; prices of houses are still way out of whack compared to the average person's income. Once again, the economic elite benefits from people going into a ton of debt. At the rate things are going, all but a tiny minority of people will be renters, with few ever owning their homes outright.
