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

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?

So America is socialist now?

College definitely should be lowered. All of my paychecks go towards tuition and I only have about $3 left for myself. It induces sadness

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.

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

@Emily Weishaupt Actually, it most likely would. But even if it wouldn't, it would still greatly make it more affordable and open up the opportunity to many more. Which would be nice, I'd assume you'd agree.

@st_cruz I understand that they would raise taxes but even taxing the upper class won't be enough to pay for every student's college.

@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.

If students don't pay for their own tuition then who does? The government? That'll sure fix the $18 trillion debt!👍

I live in Australia, and we allow you to go to uni (college) and not pay tuition fees until you are earning $50k per annum, so you can pay it off yourself once you're better prepared, instead of paying upfront like in America.

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
