Entitlement.
Yep. What's really funny are the parents slaving away (and delaying retirement!!!!!) to fund these little delicate geniuses and their 6 figure playtime adventures while most are getting worthless degrees that won't get them any meaningful work when they "graduate". Even the exceptions to that would benefit from taking an extra year or three to work themselves through, but of course its easier to be all like "daddy daddy i need more 300 dollar textbooks, and a car, and an appartment, and spending money, and a new computer, and, and, and, and..."
Then the more mass quantities of money (federal, state, 529, etc) we throw at this monstrosity the more the already inflated price balloons out of control which hurts everyone. It is the next crisis brewing, the education bubble, and you can better believe they will expect a full bailout. Student loan debt eclipses consumer credit card debt already. When we make a 4 year 6 figure vacation an entitlement for every single child in the country at whatever the price, its a bubble thats guaranteed to pop. Not to mention a bubble that if we didn't have it, a LOT more guys would take these early outs!
