Actually if you look at many of the sites and many of the protesters they are asking to get college loans 'forgiven' or paid off. If they are going to do that then I should get my two cars and two houses paid off, its just not fair that I can afford them.

My first job in Comm was with one year experience and paid 65000, the equivalent job experience didn't really play into it, I talked my way into the job in the interview.
