re: The argument that the US college system is largely a scam

Funny thing is, if you remember the Occupy Wall Street movement from a few years back, this whole skyrocketing price of college gets more absurd.

They were protesting the banking industry taking advantage of young people and minorities. I was always curious as to who could afford the time to protest, they spent months protesting Wall Street.

Well, it turns out that the most common occupation for these protesters was College professor that was on sabbatical. Hmmm......guess who set up the banks to rip off all these young people and minorities---Colleges with their expensive tuition.

Seems like they could have cut out the middle man and protested themselves.
