BO just bought the College Vote by his announcement in Denver to control the consequences of Borrow, Borrow, Borrow. Republican financing of their Wars has rubbed off on BO. That is nothing to be proud of.
“There is NO reason why a country as rich as the USA could not have free education” USED TO BE TRUE. US have a few thousand $Billions of reasons stopping it, now. The GI Bill did give education. Now, higher pay is given and the soldier has the choice to save and go to school or spend it all. My son-in-law decided to ‘save’. Smart choice for his family.
When Obama took over GM he claimed to have the power to set salaries for executives and adjust bonuses, as well as what cars they would pour money into, because they took federal money. ( a claim I wholeheartedly support, BTW)
.
That being said, if the govt gives colleges and students billions of dollars, shouldn’t the govt have a say in things like compensation packages, what is taught, etc?
Really? Are you that naive? So the education that Nazi’s gave their children, that wasn’t damaging? Any education received from Jeremiah Wright isn’t damaging? The education received from Texas public schools isn’t damaging?
.
Stop being part of the problem, and start being part of the solution…
great-so you advocate killing all prisoners. And are you talking about the unnecessary wars in Libya & Uganda? Do you advocate cutting the pay for all professors to make college affordable? As for defense expenditures…I got some of it to pay for my tuition. However, by serving I earned money for college.
The fact that you disagree with one does not change that in any way. Many would say the liberal socialist teachings spouted by a majority of college teachers is indoctrination as well.

Be careful with your answer to avoid hypocrisy…

So then you admit that Obama overstepped his bounds when he directed GM on what cars to pursue in the future…?

All education is indoctrination, by definition.

And they’d be right…

Indoctrination, is a biased set of teachings utilized to push its students down one path over another.

This describes Hamas, The Texas public school system and the liberal socialist teachings of American colleges…
