I work at Burger King. I work there about 30 hours a week. I can't afford to go to college and I don't have enough education and experience to get a good job.

Nobody likes to hire Liebrals. It's the truth. That's why you have a crappy job and COnservatives get higher end jobs.

That is bs. 30 hours a week?? I hope you are kidding. The no education excuse is just that an excuse. All I have is a GED. I worked hard all day everyday to try my best to become what I am today. Know I average 82K per year. Your prolobem is you want to blame someone else for you lack of will power and the stamina to become a person of a middle class to high class lifestyle. Know you are more than likely saying "well this guy is 50 years old." You are wrong I an 26. Get off your butt and get a real job or go find a part time job. Take the time you used to post this stupid question, get a news paper and look in the classifeds. This has nothing to do wether there is a (d) or a (r) next to someones name. It is just a sorry excuse to complain about you not having what you want.

There are countless public and private scholarships available, especially to those who are not affluent. Go to your local community college, see the financial aid counselor, fill out an FAFSA, and apply for some of the private money which goes unclaimed each year.
When I was in college, I bought a $20 book which listed private scholarships, their requirements, and specified how to apply. Granted, none of them were full rides, but $100 here and $250 there adds up in a hurry.
An education is available to you if you choose to pursue it.

Well good for you, I knew there was one of you out there. So, how do you like paying all those taxes, and especially when you are only making about $800 a month and need every bit you can get? I couldn't afford to go to college either but I saved enough to do it, and in the meantime got the experience needed for a good job! Keep at it you'll get there and then you'll switch parties!

We mean get a real job. Your making excuses. You work 30 hours a week at a poor paying job, and therefore you cannot afford to go to college. Nothing but excuses. College is FREE. All you need to do is apply for a Student Loan and start taking classes. Will your days be busy, Yup!, Will it be hard work, Yup! Both of those seem to scare Libs.

They don't have the ability to see things from other people's perspective. "If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything" Easy to say when you were born into a rich family that could pay for your education. "I'll help you by cutting your taxes." Well, that's a good start. What about increasing federal student aid so I can eventually make enough money to pay more taxes?

It's a culture thing.
RedsStaters think taking you wife to Wallmart in the morning and Go Get'er at night is a JOB. Hence the name Go-Get'er.
Whereas Blue Staters think being a Rocket Scientist or Brain Surgeon is a job.

You probably qualify for a student loan. It is not your birth right to have government take care of you. It is the responsibility of your parents until you reach eighteen after that it becomes your responsibility. You could join the military. Education is a military vets benefit. You do have resources, tap into them. Try this in another country and see how far you get,it's even harder.

There's no shame in that!
I worked at Burger King, and it helped me move my way up.
Working is always better than looking for handouts.
All the best to you!

Conservatives usually tell liberals to 'get a job' in order to change the subject away from their fearless leaders failures in Iraq.

Get a better job.
Actually I need to add to this.
If you have a talent at something then apply it. If you want to be rich then you are going to have to fight for it. The only way it will be handed to you is by purchasing lottery tickets and winning.
The government does offer grants to people who don't make much money, also there are plenty of scholarships which could help you to better yourself.
