So when Wall Street institutions make bad decisions, take on too much debt or bad investments and are ready to collapse, we (the US) take tax dollars and bail them out, so they can survive and in fact, give themselves big fat bonuses.

Conversely, we have universities preying on students who are young and impressionable (literally - Goldman Sachs-Higher Education) to make yet MORE profit for WALL STREET, leaving these students deeply in debt with no job in sight. And no forgiveness in sight either, since they're nobody (important).

And you wonder why they're resentful and protesting??
