Annoyances

"Excuse me!" is all it takes. Most people, even non-Whites, would rather avoid confrontation in the morning. Besides, if you're commuting then likely the others are commuting as well, which means they're not going to risk losing their job because some white kid wants to walk by them.

You think most non-whites are actually going to work in the morning? That's ambitious.

Temporary solution: Shave.

I bet your boyfriend appreciates it

100% of the people I've seen sharing this never served in any military capacity.

LOL.  You need better friends.

California has the best public college system in the country, from community colleges to the Cal States to the UCs.  With books, it's about $7000/year to get an education via the Cal State system.  The UC system doubles that.  I don't think that's unreasonable in the slightest for the level of education you get, especially as an investment in your future.  Unless my kids can get into a school with tons of financial aid like I did, I'm encouraging the UC system.

City University of NY Queens College, where I went, was like $5000 a year with books. I was able to pay that off with a part time job making $10 an hour and summers as a doorman. Most of the people complaining about college tuition are mad that they can't go to the big fun state schools that are $60k a year.

Granted, if you want to be on an associate track at a big investment bank, only the top notch expensive schools have internship programs that help, but I have people working alongside of me who went to NYU and Columbia. It's what you do after college that counts more than anything.

What state schools cost $60k a year for residents?

My kids seem STEM inclined.  If they can get into a great program and get aid, great.  Otherwise, there are some great schools in the UC system for STEM fields.

Well I exaggerated but there are a lot that are $30k+. My first semester was at Hofstra, a school in LI which isn't better than QC, but my first semester was $25k. I got sucked into the same trap. I though a city or state school wouldn't be worth it.

Hofstra is private.  You said State schools that were $60k+.  Private schools absolutely can cost that, and there are a ton of way overpriced ones.

Well then I think most people who are complaining are doing so because they can't afford to go to private schools without a mountain of debt. State and city schools are perfectly reasonable. Sure, state schools are more expensive, but you really don't need to go to one if you can't afford it.

Most people complaining about college tuition are done with school and realized they got fucked. Most people who would benefit directly from a future move to free public universities are not even voting age yet.
