It's a little bit horseshit to use a 9/11 first responder benefit(2003 HEROES Act) for a nationwide program.

If your business can't survive 10 days of interruption it's a shit business and should go under. Sorry. Free market. They'll be replaced by a savvier business.
If I purposely bulldoze a business with a bulldozer.

Is it their fault they go out of business?

No. If I wasn't in the equation, it wouldn't have happened.

I don't care how savvy someone is, if you keep them from earning money, you're going to cripple them.

Just like how 70% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, businesses really aren't any better.

Poor people don't go to College.

Starbucks-addicted yuppies send their children to college.

Hope this helps.

Do student loans make college more expensive or less?

Tell that to my dorm-mate freshman year who was the son of a Vietnamese helicopter baby with jack shit to his name but was savvy enough to get scholarships, and got loans for the rest. There were many like him.

There are many, many poor people in colleges, especially non Ivy league schools.

He's a Big 4 accountant now.

You people don't know jack shit about the world. Must be rural.

Three posts in 10 minutes because your mind wasn't quick enough to come up with those potshots all in one, enough said. Work on that critical thinking.

The anecdote was used to illustrate an example of a larger whole. The statistics regarding college being a ticket to social mobility for the poor are ubiquitous, but I'm certainly not going to dig them up for someone who is trying desperately to cling to their ignorant worldview, it's pointless.

As my homie Gandalf would say, "I did not travel through fire and death to bandy crooked words with a witless worm". I'm gonna go enjoy the rest of my day off, seeing as I don't need to work very much [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
