03/12/2005 Entry: "Abigail on the college myth"

"Wait, isn't that all backwards? Doesn't college allow poor people to join the ranks of the upper middle class?

"Well maybe that's the way it used to work once upon a time, but not today. Today, the college graduate is burdened with student loans, starting out life already in debt. And about a decade ago, Congress passed a law prohibiting student loans from being discharged in bankruptcy."
College keeps poor people poor, Abigail's Magic Garden, March 11, 2005

Abigail explains the way we live now. And it's not pretty.

EDIT 20050314: Abigal has more on the subject.

Hello Readers! If you're still liking what you're reading here, you can help out with the webhosting bill with a donation, if you are so inclined. In addition to my eternal gratitude, you'll have the comfort of knowing I won't be spending it on frivolous things like food or the electric bill or something.

One of the best deals anywhere.

Donations to keep us going are very welome!

Our webhost, is a really good deal and is probably having a huge sale on something as we speak. If you're looking for webhosting, I recommend them very much.
