Say what you want about Lori Laughlin. At least she understood that one good scam deserves another. In the immortal words of her [Laurie Laughlin\u2019s] daughter, Olivia Jade, \u2018I don\u2019t know how much school I\u2019m going to attend \u2026 but I do want the experience of, like, game days and partying.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>WATCH:<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"New Rule: The College Scam | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_x5SeXNabd8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, I\u2019m not f***ing paying for that,\u201d Maher said, who went on to observe the disproportionate number of college students who have obtained high grades since 1960, as well as the staggering rate of college tuition compared to the rate of inflation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA wannabe librarian needs a master\u2019s degree just to get an entry-level job filing books. I\u2019ve heard this from so many nurses, and teachers, and administrators, rolling their eyes when relating how they needed to take some bulls*** course in order to advance in their field when, really, they already learn what they need by working the job,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut in the grift that is our higher education, when you want to move up \u2026 you need to pay for more \u2018education\u2019 before we decide if you can do what you do,\u201d Maher said. \u201cF***, this is what Scientology does.
