Anyone watching the statement Obama's giving about Libya? I heard last night that the UN voted to bomb them, but I don't know what they settled on.

Here's a thing

White people bomb Libya.

Yup, it costs about 8-10 grand to go to university for a year? Pretty forgeted up.

Not wanting to drag the topic into British politics, but he has to.
The country has no money, we're spending crap loads on all sorts of things, and we have to stop in order to save money. Then the country can focus on generating more money.

It can only cost a maximum of 9 grand for tuition fees at University for a single year.
The thing is, people don't start repaying that debt until they earn a certain amount.
The amount you pay back is a fixed rate, and generally, if you're going to University, you're gaining an advanced education and should be getting into a good job which can afford to pay back this debt.
Even if you have the debt for a long time, it's just a simple debt that you can work around.
Since it's a debt you start life with in this scenario, it's not going to hurt you.
Your lifestyle will actually adapt around it, instead of dropping it into a lifestyle that is already set up.

On-Topic: I hadn't heard of the UN deciding to bomb Libya, but I did watch the UN Vote yesterday.
Out of the 15 members who were voting, 10 voted for a No-Fly zone, 0 voted against and 5 abstained, including China and Russia.

Which pretty much means, if the Libyan's fly any of their planes around, which they are doing and are using to attack their own people, the UN will simply fly in an aircraft and shoot down the Libyan planes.
It's evening up the terms for the Libyan Rebels, who don't have a chance of protecting themselves from the governments planes.

...THEY DIDNT DO ANYTHING TO US

He said they won't deploy troops on the ground, only take "action" from the air if they have to-- because America "can't afford another Iraq".

It's another Iraq, really. let's face it.
