Out of State Tuition is Bullshit

I'm going to community college this fall, actually in 38 days but after the two years of said community college . I'm Planning on going to University of Utah......but the only problem is that I live in Iowa. meaning its going to cost an extra 18,000 a year. Thats absurd, college is already expensive but this ridiculous.

Just because I wasn't born in the right state, dosent mean I should have to pay for it, Literally.  I would understand if it was like an extra 3,000-5,000 but 18,000. Say I want to get a masters. that would be  a extra 72,000 of college debt for the same education. The average U.S income is 50,500 and the extra debt would be 142% income for a year. thats great for a young person, who has no job and is away from home but hey Go F### yourself from Out of state of Tuition.

This really depresses me that I will have to fork over so much money to be the same as everyone else and its over a really stupid reason.  Were all U.S Citizens but I understand giving your instate kids a edge but do they need a 72,000 dollar edge? We should be embracing education for everyone and not shunning for people because they wasn't born in the right place.
