Punishment not perks.

Cuomo's attempt at political grandstanding is an insult to honest, hard-working New Yorkers. Disgraceful.

My children have to pay back student loans and a lawbreaking criminal gets a free education! I think not.

I am still paying for my son's education, still paying a mortgage, and work full time plus overtime to make ends meet!

Prisoners should not be rewarded with perks that the rest of us have to work for.

Absolutely ridiculous. As if the prisoners in this country don't have it good enough already. So instead of spending $60,000 on my college education (which I am begrudgingly paying off now) maybe I should have just committed a crime and and went to prison to get free college! Maybe next they will buy them all new cars!

No. Let them take out loans with a cosigner. I'll be lucky if I can pay back my student loans before I die.

This is disgusting! I worry every single day about how my son, a straight A student, will go to college since we can't afford it. Yet these criminals will get handouts? NO WAY!!!

Prisoners should not get rewarded for commiting a crime. My kids are going it alone for college as it is impossible for me to help.

I can't afford to move out of my parents house at age 24 because I spend a vast majority of my income paying back school loans. In no way do I support a free education for someone who has neglected the law. I work hard and have to pay on my own. If they want an education they should get one the same way as law-abiding citizens do.

This is a horrible idea. Our Governor continues to make decision that makes things easier for criminals instead of law abiding citizens!
