Education should teach the youth of today to honour any agreement they voluntarily entered into. Not unlearn it.

I have just visited my cousin and her daughter who is a student is excited because in America all the student debt has been hand waved away.

This is a very alarming president and I tried to tell Anne that this sets a bad example to the young who are just entering the work place. Being absolved of important formal agreements does not foster an environment where diligence, back bone and general good work ethic are fostered.

She then started spewing a tirade of reactionary progressive clap trap that she can only have picked up at university. This was startling because she is only studying Art History so I thought she would be insulated from this kind of indoctrination.

What is strange is that she gets so emotive about this but despite herself having just finished her 1st year,she hasn't herself received any external financial assistance so this issue doesn't affect her at all.

This is another issue that is very concerning with modern education; it is almost cult like how they make the young care about things that have no effect on them and often these things in question were unknown to them before they were removed from their parents vigilance.

She then saw that she had made me quite upset and so tried to offer apologies but I decided to leave. On my ride home she sent me forlornly reticent texts but when I saw that she uses pictures and abbreviations, I decided it would not be worth my time engaging with her.

That's the problem with liberal university education. It does widen your mind and cultivate compassion and a social conscience among the impressionable young 馃檪 A troubling modern tendency indeed 馃ぃ

Damn liberals! Opening people's minds to try to understand the problems of others. Compassion, selflessness, understanding...sheesh! Trying to be all Good Samaritan-y and help others even when they are half-way around the world!

Jesus, who do they think they are?
