[quote=flu]Because there are people who struggle and have a minimum wage job at best, and their kids deserve a chance to get out of the shithole, especially if their academic credentials are good.

And if it wasn’t considered, people like me would make my kid apply for financial aid while I spend my money on a McLaren. Of course there are a lot of Americans that do just that, where they would bleed there live savings to death to buy bling and then complain about how their kid needs to take out a student loan….And I’m sure if you really wanted to, you could also take that approach…

But I guess for some of us, that goes against the grain of reason and responsibility….Yes, folks like this are suckers.. Oh well.[/quote]

If parental income and money was by law not considered, kids would pay for their own education.

Which would lower the price.

And actually seems like a fair set up, notwithstanding the fact that I didnt pay for mine.
