My son is working a 2nd job to pay off student loans. He and his wife received very little help.

If people go to school to get a job that does not pay very well they will have to work a 2nd job to pay for it. That is their decision to go into that field.

If a person does not want to go to college they can go to a trade school. There will always be a need for plumbers, electricians, carpenters, welders, and a whole host of other trades.

The ones getting the higher education are the ones who will benefit the most so why should they not pay for it?

When I first got married and getting started in life, I worked 2 jobs. There is nothing wrong with having a 2nd job if that is what it takes.
