A-level students' futures have been stolen from them

A-level students face a lifetime of debt if they go to university, says Danny Dorling, for the benefit of the rich

twenty-five years, I collected my results in A. In 1986, only a handful of us traipsed to school to get them. Most children had left at the age of 16. Of those remaining, including those taking A-levels, only a small number could go to college, most of them are children. Today, half of all girls now earn a place at university.

When I went to college, there were no objections. This was because people had fought for decades to open to universities, not because there were so few of us come from regular schools. Angry reports were written in 1930 about the unequal access to university was then. Fifty years later, that has never been the same, but the tide turned again.

In 1986 the richest 1% of the population 18% of the wealth market (the kind you can borrow). For the rich, was a weak point. In that year, the poorest half of all Britons owns 10% of commercial wealth among them, a record. Latest figures show that the richest 1% of Britons now have 53% of the commercial wealth and the poorest half have only 6%.

most successful A level students are now facing a life of debt if they want to go to college. Student loans will eventually be signed by the richest 1%, occupying most of what money can be lent, that 53% of commercial wealth. In the coming decades, the interest on the debt that students have to pay for everything will find its way into bank balances than the richest 1%. This is not of interest to 99% of the population.

It gets worse. The same irrational logic that was used to privatize universities could be extended to secondary education. Why politicians can do, adults who choose not to have children, be taxed to subsidize education? Why not instead give all children a loan and while we're at it, certainly not all children learn after 16 years? Do all children should stay until 17? After all, many new jobs in the future it will work in the service for the super-rich. Do you need a GCSE to be a butler, housekeeper, nanny or cleaning?

• There is another way. In fact, there are many alternatives to the monitoring state stupid, we went to a good level of student, fixing a critical essay on it, I do not know where to start. They have much to say and so little time to talk.

Between 2000 and 2008, the position of the United Kingdom in the OECD ranking dropped from third to 15 when measuring the proportion of young people go to college. At the top of the list is Finland, where 80% of girls now attend the university. How much should you pay young Finns pay for it? Costs for the home do not exist in Finland, and 94% of all funds for higher education is the Finnish public sector.

There is only one level of the students who will fly to keep the rich as rich, but their parents for help if they can, and grandparents, who cares of them now, even if they have "done well". In fact, everyone gets hurt when we say a generation that we are not willing to let what we had. Why not push selfishness and resentment? And if they do, who will take care of the elderly in 25 years?

Soon, 99% of us, probably to demand compensation from the British (private public disapproval and ostracism), very quiet and rich 25 years of flight that occurred and which runs through the financing of student loans and government loans in general. After all, it's not as if the "wealth creators" have succeeded in creating a new dawn. They had their 25 years of shooting and failed.
If you collect the results of this week, good luck with your future. Whatever you give, please remember that it is more important to be something good and useful than trying to get rich, or simply to survive. His parents have forgotten that. Let that happen and are now worried about their future and their own.
