It really does sound like one of those “with a small donation from my parents” story. And even if it’s not, great for her, she was lucky. Does she really believe most students just smoke weed and fuck all day or something? Every single person I knew from the US that went to uni worked during uni. Hell, even as a European I had to work despite the state money I got.

I know people who donated blood and plasma just to get by - and they had scholarships!

How can employers be “in dire need of employees” and people still have to hustle to get a job? They obviously aren’t in dire need.
