That's exactly why they went to the streets. At this rate in another 10 years there wont be state unis for the rural youths.

In 2005 govt spent 200K on the education of a uni student. In 2012 after 7years of sky rocketing cost of living the government is spending 180K per student. Go check the statistics at the Central bank!

Educated graduates should not be in knees. Positions have used them for many years on their knees.

The maths seems good in paper only. Still we are suffering with high prices. Who enjoys that prosperity?

In 2005, government spent 2.9% GDP on education. In 2012 after winning the war on terror its a miserable 1.86%. For this government education has become such a low priority.

Politicians look for opportunities to show their existence, and this is one such at no cost. FUTA should have not allowed them on stage, only on he floor
