People who have come to depend on government handouts are starting to feel the pinch. <br /><br />The students that were protesting over tuition hikes are just the first salvo in what looks to be a long, drawn out fight.<br /><br />I fully support them protesting. But not WHY they're protesting. Their anger should be directed at the politicians that have dug us this hole.<br /><br />With an almost unanimous voice, they're pissed because they will no longer get their free or discounted education. From someone who paid his own way by working while attending college, I have little sympathy for their "plight".<br /><br />The "education is a right" blather seriously ticks me off.<br /><br />But they've all been raised to believe this. Like I noted, they are just the first to protest because the gravy train has stopped running, but I guarantee you, they won't be the last.Chief Instructorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13604561415860237705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964596045360803212.post-51045778878371399312010-03-05T10:05:04.451-08:002010-03-05T10:05:04.451-08:00The most powerful word in any language is "NO...The most powerful word in any language is "NO"!!! Convince several million people to stop paying taxes. That would be the second most powerful act for citizens to force the attention of government. <br /><br />MikeMikeH.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11511925756474067012noreply@blogger.com
