Comment Re:Not a drone (Score 1) 196

In the RC circle they usually are seen as drones and some have been impacted by those drone laws that get passed. Remote unmanned craft, operating under it's own power, with a human controlling it.

The laws saying people can shoot down drones; they also mean these type of craft too.

Community college is also having it's costs raises year after year.

And as for a job, it's be nice if they would let you work and go to school. Best you can do is some blue collar one which depending where you work they might switch your hours week to week.

Can't come into work because you got class? Well there is a line of people here who are unemployed and also not going to school that can work that shift; so are still not able to come in?

Well it does differ from one industry to another, but for IT yea, 4 years of many redundant classes is not needed.

Even some car mechanics are being expected to have 4 years degrees. I could understand if you were working for the actual car manufacturer and you had to write out techinal documentation, but to follow the pictured instructions of how to replace a steering rack; 4 years is overkill.

I would say it's more an issue of the Government guaranteeing the loans.

No bank will give an unemployed adult, a $100k loan for a house; but for a College kid they will give them the same loan for some dead end degree with little to no earning power.

Also need to lower the demand for degrees in the private sector; they have become the new HS Diploma only you'll now be working a low wage job with tens of thousands of debt.

Think you mean Moby Dick:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moby-Dick

> Ahab ultimately dooms the crew of the Pequod (save for Ishmael) to death by his obsession with Moby Dick. During the final chase, Ahab hurls his last harpoon while yelling his now-famous revenge line:

"to the last I grapple with thee; from hell's heart I stab at thee; for hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee."
