Every Broke College Student Needs to Hear This News ...

By Holly • Nov 13, 2015

If you're a college student in America, you're probably used to being broke. It's not because you're lazy. It's because it costs a ridiculous amount of money to attend a university.
That's why there was recently a campus democracy rally in Ohio. According to Reuters, "The demonstrations, dubbed the Million Student March, were planned just two days after thousands of fast-food workers took to the streets in a nationwide day of action pushing for a $15-an-hour minimum wage and union rights for the industry."
"Organizers are demanding tuition-free public colleges, cancellation of all student debt and a $15-an-hour minimum wage for campus workers."

Do you think that the price of college should be lowered?

It is what it is... Your education is forever! Just don't major in "decision "sciences as list in one of the 33 strange majors.

America has always been capitalist with socialist tendencies just think about all the government funded groups I don't think it would hurt to cut back in certain areas to help college kids

I agree to a certain extent; however some companies will pay for a student to go for free or just give them a scholarship or grant In return they will be employed by the company I wish more companies did this because college is expensive

@Emily Weishaupt If you know anything about politics and economy, you know they plan to tax people who make billions (who are taxed almost nothing) and will not only allow more people to go to college, but greatly stimulate the economy.

That's sort of along the lines of what happens here

Who's going to pay for students to go to college for free?

Bernie Sanders for president of you agree! He has a tax plan that will pay for it:)

So America is socialist now?

Germany is not socialist and it is practically for free, even UK is cheaper

@k-dizzle That's WAY easier said than done. You need an education to get a career unless you have some kind of connection to larger businesses. It's not easy, every college in America is expensive even if it's community. Don't be so condescending when people can't afford things, not everyone is so damn fortunate.
