This is bull crap. Only 7,700 views, while Justin Bieber, The Lazer Collection, or Political gaffs get millions.

Heavy. Real heavy. But what does it mean? That most students should be doing something else rather than sitting in a college class texting friends and updating Facebook? If that is the case, how about we return to the days where most kids DON'T go to college but go get a job they deserve: building houses or flipping burgers or getting married and having babies? The days when those who deserve a higher education get it and others don't? I vote for that.
