Grass roots sort of movements like your blog will help and now that the major media outlets are starting to catch on (to some extent) that may help as well. When philosophy majors are earning more on average than law graduates then you know something is wrong (no offense to philosophy majors, but it is held up as a general example of an unpractical modern degree).brokeprofessionalshttp://brokeprofessionals.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6019808636238280118.post-42014747951666048532011-01-31T18:30:41.551-05:002011-01-31T18:30:41.551-05:001/26 @ 9:19 pretty much nailed it.

Something needs to be done to stimulate education AND provide relief to those former students restricted from progress by the golden handcuffs of school loan debt. For many, the cost of higher education is not worth the price. However, I am of the mindset that the "Educated Stimulus" plan could provide relief while simultaneously stimulating the economy (without significantly adding to the debt). It is not nearly as exciting or desirable as full student loan forgiveness, but it is a reasonable plan that the Parties may actually agree on. Find the details and contribute to the discussion at http://www.educatedstimulus.com. The website is an attempt to promote simple ideas to preserve our future. (After complaining about the problem for so long, I am finally trying to push my solution. I only hope those who daily sculpt our generation's future will daily seek our generation's input. Also, congratulations to you on turning your idea to stimulate education and the economy into such a strong moving force!Educated Stimulushttp://www.educatedstimulus.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6019808636238280118.post-78705562071594498372011-01-26T22:34:43.976-05:002011-01-26T22:34:43.976-05:00If oversaturation is the good news, what the hell&...If oversaturation is the good news, what the hell's the bad news?J-Doghttp://restoringdignitytothelaw.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6019808636238280118.post-977973943111315442011-01-26T21:19:46.093-05:002011-01-26T21:19:46.093-05:00Sorry, Rose, but I think your post shows how out o...Sorry, Rose, but I think your post shows how out of touch you are. Have you seen what the people who run law schools make? Do you realize that no matter how many schools open, there will be suckers standing there with the federal loan applications waiting to hand you big wads of dough just for the right to sit there and listen to some clown ask a bunch of questions but tell nothing that will ever be useful in making a living?<br /><br />I'm planning to open a law school in the burned out grocery store that's been sitting empty for the last 10 years.
