Good morning??

[oldtimer]

Yeah.... I woke up today in a cranky mood especially after reading the daily papers...

What the hell kind of generation are those that are attending todays colleges??

Between service dogs for those that are suffering discomfort to special ''Time out'' rooms for those in need of stress removal...
Even one college that had to bring in ''Pigs'' to sooth mounting distress moods....30 year olds are still called ''Kids'' and are treated as such...Same sex bathroom's...

How in the world will they handle real problems they are sure to meet...What the hell are they attending college for, to be indoctrinated by ultra liberal teachers...

It will take a few more years to rid the garbage that has taken control over our education system, but the damage they have instigated will still linger...

The light near the end of the tunnel is near, but thank God it is in sight and we will emerge once again to be the America I knew and loved and not the bunch of 'Pansey's' that could not meet hard ships unless there is a ''PIGLET'' at their side which are sure to protect you when danger looms......

There...I feel a little better.......

OT, I hear what you're saying, and your view seems reasonable. But, you should also realize that when kids leave college, they do so with $50-100 K of student loans. And that would make me nervous. Different times.

59.........When they leave college they are 22-23 years of age, and are longer KIDS as you insist on calling them...They attended college mostly because these days it is the thing to do....Education is secondary and a large portion of them had no reason or the intellegence and ambition to be there in the first place......

Where are the ''Trade'' people...Who will do ''Plumbing, carpentry, mechanic's, painter's
factory work, etc''...A college degree these days in most cases are not worth the paper they are written on...Of course a large amount who received them had expectations that the way Goverment money was given out by the last administration the loan would ultimetly be forgiven...This no doubt has led to disapointment and hatred of Pres.Trump with the realization that it will have to be paid.....Once this sets in, watch college enrollment drop, but the value of a college degree rise greatly...

''Socialistic policies work fine until you run out of other peoples money.''

Those that you call ''KIDS'' are in for some extremely bad finiancial times and they are not prepared for them.....

But of course there is always a shovel or selling apples on a street corner and they can use their valueless College degree to start a fire to keep them warm...

OT, good point about kids, but remember, I was born during the Depression, and you were born in the Roaring Twenties, and caused the Depression. Just a reminder.

59.....So, I was born in 1925....The great depression started in 1929...I must have been a devil of a 4 year old to have Caused the depression...

I find many of these convoluted writings on this board...I would highly recommend that they should be read carefully before pushing the send button...

History has a habit of repeating itself...IMO the 12 trillion dollar hole the Obama administration added to the amount we allready were mired with is now a fast growing 20 trillion dept...That is insurmountable and will shortly lead to a depression that will rival what is known as 'The great depresion'...

Remember...You read it here....Just a reminder......
