Having been in this program, I just want to say...we do pay for it! Our *working* parents paid for it via taxation, and the 80+ percent of us that actually go out and get jobs in our field of study are...hold on to your butts for this one...taxpayers as well(and well paid one's at that)! Yeah, that's right, we actually get up off our butts and get jobs, again 80+ percent in our field, instead of feeding off the government for the rest of our lives, which is probably what will end up happening to those 80+ percent when this program is cut! So, now that you see my side, would you rather your hard earned tax dollars go to someone who will in turn become a contributing member of society, or would you rather feed another deadbeat!?
