Obama's $4000 student grant to college students. More BS

Advertisements [?]

So he's gonna give them $4000 and they have to promise to work it off in "homeless shelters"?

Yeah right.

They graduate with their degree, enter their professions or other paying jobs, he thinks they're going to go back and work at a homeless shelter instead of paying off the loan? Why would they do that? They won't have money to do it, they'll be fresh out of college.

The program will have to hunt them down and then call in the loan.

Obama succeeds in creating another layer of useless bureaucracy.

Sounds good to the kiddies though.
