If so many jobs didn't stupidly require college degrees and if college wasn't stupidly expensive and if wages had kept up with production for the last 50+ years and if corporations werent allowed to own vast swaths of housing and if the world wasn't run by greedy power hungry capitalists then maybe, just maybe, PERHAPS people might have a few extra bucks to be able to afford something.

Just a thought. Maybe, the issue is money has been taken from the people in so many ways.
