yeah, not only are the fees astronomical (all those cartoons about people not paying off loans until they're 50+ are about right), but they keep getting jacked up every damn year until college is just a pointless waste of time, especially with the job crisis and most degrees being useless. good job on your lit major and your bachelors in fine arts. how's that helping you flip burgers? and student loans can carry for so long and affect people most of their lives, it's just a ridiculous system. is it denmark that has free education? people should go to denmark.
