It's actually kind of funny because 85% of college graduates end up moving back in with their parents upon receiving their degree.

I'm going to have a BS in Business Administration with an Economics Minor, and will be doing the same. Why? Because it makes much more economic sense to do so.

This is the world we live in. An education costs so much that it covers the opportunity cost only in rare occasions.

You can get a job . You don't have to occupy your parents basement? I mean what did you do today to get a job ?

What difference does it make? If he gets a job then there's someone else without one - who you'll be telling to get a job. Job seeking is not an industry! And if you succeed in convincing people that they shouldn't protest, but spend every moment fighting against each other in a rigged game, who takes over the political aspirations of the country? Al-Qaida, Los Zetas, the People's Liberation Army? There is always someone willing to respect the poor and offer them a path to dignity - the only question is whether it's somebody good or somebody bad.

Which I plan on doing...

What's wrong with living with my parents? I save money on rent by paying them much less than I normally would, which allows me to pay off my student loans.

I don't see the problem.

If you don't even understand the point of the protest why do you post here?

Sure I do. I am protesting 30 years of failed supply-side economic policy.

stopbanningme, how do you make ur money? What would you do tomorrow if your money source dried up? Would you currently be able to start over if you had nothing, but a piece of paper telling the world you could take a test, and had knowledge about a subject? If you all of this would be easy for you to answer, then please share so we can get more people empowered to be employeed!

Mommy's basement? Most of these trustafarians occupy Mommy's summer house in the Hamptons.
