Student Fees Protest

Thursday night i watched the news to learn the final decision on the student fees.
They voted to increase the fees to up to £9,000 a year for universities and so students went down to Parliament Square where a demonstration turned into a major riot, and to be fair they had every right to cause now students are going to leave university with five figures worth of debt and so all their working life which they have worked hard for so they get a good job which a degree is recognised in so they can earn quite a bit of money their just going to be paying it all back. To me this is so wrong, us students are going to struggle to afford to own our own houses when theres people with no ambition in life who chose not to work get given a house to live in! or they get pregnant as an easy way out, i know this sounds like an episode of jeremy kyle but its those scum bags who get given everything and wont work for anything. So why should they get money that weve worked hard to earn which gets taken away from us in taxes and gets handed to them on a plate even if theyve never contributed anything to the system.
Also another issue with this is the fact that Charles and Camilla were taken in their car throuigh the riots, why the hell did that happen? A riot! Not a royal congregation so therefore they shouldnt expect anything less than what they got in my opinion. Also it was kind of a kick in the teeth for the students as were working hard so we earn a decent amount when we leave university when they are there sitting in a Rolls Royce which was probably paid for by tax payers or their fortune which they havent really had to work for as its been inherited. Surely there was another way around the riots or they could have gone to the theatre another night maybe.
