At what point, exactly, did education of an individual at the expense of the masses become a right? Why, pray tell, is it suddenly my responsibilty as a taxpayer to fund the yahoo who dicks off playing Starcraft LAN games on the campus network?
If you work your ass off to go to school, then I commend and respect that. Good job. If you expect me to gleefully turn over my hard-earned bucks so that slackers I don't even know can spend their wonder years slapboxing the one-eyed champ in the dorm room that *I* unwillingly put them in... That, my friend, your proverbial slap in the face.
A college education is not a right. It isn't a "privilege of the rich white classes," either. If you want an education, then beg, borrow, or steal, but don't you dare tell me that it is my responsiblity to provide you with it.

You have no rights at the expense of others.
