Eh. At least you can connect it to the happiness that sooner or later the system will fall apart.
But it won't be the people who were involved in the system that get punished for it, just like in '08.
Sure they will. The generation that popularized the idea that everyone should go to university will be hitting retirement age, and the people who would have been paying their Social Security checks are going to be unemployed or working shit jobs for shit pay and not paying enough into the system.
'cept for the fact they won't really need social security, given they'd have massive amounts of coins from tax evasion avoidance ('cause they're not similes when it comes to the fucking law, apparently) or all the shares in the banks that are too big to fail. /cynicism
You're missing your target there. There are "universities" that are run as profitable institutions. State unis aren't among them. Contrary to popular belief, not everything bad is a conspiracy cunningly orchestrated by a cabal of the super-rich, and acting as if it were doesn't help people working to fight corruption where it genuinely exists. The systemic problems with U.S. universities are due to a combination of mismanagement, poor and often incoherent federal and state fiscal policy, a population unwilling to accept taxation for the benefits it demands, and a generation of people who, after seeing their own (at the time unusual) college degrees lead them to success, decided that everyone should get a degree, thus making it as if nobody had.
Among other things. The profiteering off of student loans I'll grant you. Heh. Grant. Get it, 'cause nobody gets those any more. :I
