Wage slaves. Have you talked to a college student lately? They are going 
$40-60K or more in debt to go to school, as is expected of them, but 
when they graduate, there is no job, or nothing in their field. They 
must take any work, at any price, so they don't default on their student 
loans after they use up their deferments. And these loans will take 
years to pay off. This is the "great college scam" in my opinion, and 
when top officials urge ppl to go back to school while they are laid 
off, to these storefront colleges and even state community colleges, 
they are just perpetuating the fraud. This huge college debt that no one 
ever questions, is the next big bubble waiting to burst in the financial 
markets in my opinion.
