A lot of people graduating from college have no job opportunities because your generation fucked over the economy.

Also, I would think if someone was truly sympathetic to the occupiers, the last people they would be concerned about are the people who have been blessed to go to college. |

College isn't a blessing. Blessings don't come with tens of thousands of dollars of debt. |

Hardly. It's a choice. But it's not a blessing either.

I've been reading a lot of academia from the 1980s, and holy shit did those guys overuse the comma. It's not just Oxford commas, either. They just excessively dropped commas at every possible turn.

I was waiting for someone to point that out. I'm a hypocrite.

Grammar
![]() Holy shit (a phrase which can be equally used in parentheses, such as this one) is not essential to the sentence and can therefore be offset by commas. You can reread your statement without the "holy shit" and it will still make sense. |

The OWS kids aren't doing a great job of it, but I don't understand how anyone can't understand the anger. Or see that it will boil over. I guess it's still because of the 'jobs' focus in the US. But it's really about shit like this: What price the new democracy? Goldman Sachs conquers Europe - Business Analysis & Features - Business - The Independent
