On CNBC, they are showing American Greed and it is about how parents have managed to get their kids into elite schools...fascinating! Singer is really a snake according to this. They show how Loughlin, Huffman, and others were totally aware they were doing something illegal. If you can watch this, you will see a different picture of what the news has reported.

I didn't see the show. Did they mention how wealthy parents are giving up custody of their kids and turning them over to relatives in order for them to qualify for financial aid? There are so many despicable ways people cheat the system. I know a few very well off people who've manipulated the system to get what I call "freebies." What cracks me up is they are the first to make disparaging remarks about poor people who really need welfare. They call them mooches.

And people just adore those thieves - the celebrities. I would recall all the degrees and strip the 'graduates' of their units, etc. and have them pay like everyone else and attend and learn like everyone else.
The nation will suffer with dunces like those privledged students.

@Puzzle Piece. If you think it is just celebrities that do this you are very misinformed.

@Puzzle Piece. Well it’s happened in NJ with a well known, high up family. A family who should not be doing it.

This garbage has been going on for decades!!! The haves and the have nots. There are plenty of privileged people whose money and/or famous names bought their degrees!!! Just review some of the graduates from The Wharton School at University of Pennsylvania.
IMO, every single degree awarded to undeserving students should be revokec immediately!!! Those people didn't earn their admission or their degree.
Sadly, the college admissions process needs a complete overhaul. Too much emphasis on famous names, the wealthy, certain athletes, etc. What does this say to our high school students who are working hard to be admitted to college???
