But do you honestly believe that it was as easy for you as it would have been if you had your education paid for by scholarship? And again, I'm not saying that life is supposed to be easy, I'm saying that it should be the government's role to ensure that life is MORE fair.

So have you worked hard for your children to avoid the same hardships you had to face if they decide to pursue a post secondary education?
Seems to me the profit motive/incentive is working?
I'm saying it's the INDIVIDUALS role to ensure their life, and those of their children, is the product of their labour, not the product of a bureaucratic decision.
