How about this, I had to quit the job i was working on to go back to college, so i was told i could get some county assistance because of the lesser money i would be bringing home and i found this out.

If you are a full-time college student you have to work atleast 20 hrs a week to get help from them, but if i wasn't a student and wasn't working i could get all the benefits. Now does that make any sense, a person trying to better themselves can't get help but some lazy ass not doing nothing can get all the free money and help.

Nice example. Here's another...

A friend of mine is poor. And female. Her fault? She's white and has no child out of wedlock.

I had a neighbor who was poor but not as poor as my friend. She's not white and has a child out of wedlock.

My neighbor had her entire college paid for. She's no smartypants, so let's just say it wasn't for her grades.

My friend is a smartypants, but won't get **** because she's white and knows how to properly use birth control (my neighbor was reckless).

There ya go. Fair? Hell no.

Moral of the story - if you want to go to college, don't be white (and definitely don't be Asian, that's worse than being white) and have a child out of wedlock. Free ride, especially if you mark "unknown" for who the father is like my neighbor did.

So if I check "mother unknown" for my boys, I can get my college paid for? BRILLIANT!

I dont want to get too political but college is cheap and even if your friend had to pay for it herself, it would be much easier than trying to go to school while taking care of a kid.

Anyone can get a student loan and grants regardless of your skin color. Federal grants are for everyone. If your friend is over 23 or 24 years old, all of her tuition should be paid for with grants providing she meets the lower income requirement which used to be around 11k earned in your previous year. If your friend is under that age, she's not likely to get grants.

I'm not going to pretend to know you and your friends better than you but i'll just say that maybe there is more to the story.

Well, the problem is she isn't 24 yet, and her mother's an alcoholic and a loser and still uses her as a tax deduction (so she can buy more booze for her drunk boyfriend and herself).

So....

She's screwed. Can't get those loans until she's 24. If she applied right now, she'd get very little.

But yes, college is cheap, but the way the system works is you have to be 24 to get fully financed. That's what I did when I was 26 - went to Grad school and had my whole way paid for with loans, which I'm paying back today at 4.5%, which is a pretty good deal.

Yea, the same happened to me pretty much. Doesn't matter that I was on my own since I was 19 years old, they didn't care. So i just worked and took some classes until i figured out what I really wanted to do. By then, i qualified for grants and didn't have to do too much in loans.

Yeah, you have to be on your own for 2 years. You have to be able to show you made enough money to support yourself with 2 tax returns.

Grants are tricky. I got some, but not that much. You must have known what you were doing.

I got no grants until the age of 24 also. It's just how it is.

Martha Careful (14h) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.
beast (16h) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.
Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.
Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th
Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st
Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm
Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.
beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.
beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."
beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less
beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.
Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.
Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: โ€œGot in a fight with the bench press. I lost.โ€
Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though
TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes
Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.
Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face
Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.
dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that
dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.
Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)
Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!
packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold
Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
