    College student income is a bit higher although it doesn't come to you in cash: Your dorm is much cheaper than a poor teacher's apartment(for several reasons) and besides your parents are probably the ones paying for that.

    My income is barely above minimum wage, I work two jobs and my mother is a single secretary so she doesn't have anything to give me.

    And you may be able to walk to class but the teacher who lives two blocks away from school has to have a car in order to drive.

    I live about 6 miles from school and drive a 12 year old Oldsmobile with 220,000 miles on it with a leaky windshield. I drive this ghetto-mobile from an over priced one bedroom apartment that I share with another person.

    You also probably don't have any children, that multiplies the food expense and requires much more than your cheap dorm.

    I don't live in a dorm. I don't have any children, but is it my fault that they have children. If they could keep their penis in their pants or their legs closed that wouldn't be an issue. Children don't just show up to make someone poor.

    Everyone makes choices in life, some bad some good. A teacher shouldn't be teaching for the money. They know that they don't get paid much before they go into teaching and if they didn't like the pay they're in the wrong field. Teaching should come from the joy of teaching and not be about making money.

    I don't take money from the government because it's not your's, your mother's or your grandparent's job to pay for my college.

    Cut welfare and then the Americans who actually do work won't be able to afford a home or even food.

    The Mexicans are able to, why can't Americans? If they give up the video games, flat screen TVs and cars I guarantee you they can get off welfare and afford a home. I see them at Wal-Mart with expensive designer clothes and then they swipe their Food Stamp cards and complain that they can't buy the sugary cereal. If I can do it on a college student income, they can do it.

    No, the democrat candidates best hope for getting elected is turning out the *democrat* vote. The republicans are doing a bang-up job of keeping their base at home this election.

    Wrong! The best hope for getting Democrat candidates elected is to bus hordes of illegal immigrants to the polls to vote for them so the illegal immigrants won't fear losing their welfare or to actually have some policy besides gay marriage and "anti bush" anything to compete with.
