Obama. free college to anyone willing to work for it

[ChesusRice]

The only one who said I was afraid was you. Now if I was you, I might be afraid.

Well then. Why are you trying to limit the number of applicants to your chosen feild?

I'm not.

Who is paying for all this free college? Are the teachers teaching for free? Are the administrators administering for free? Is the electricity powering the buildings free?

Where is all this free stuff coming from??

Are you jealous you aren't smart enough to get in?

I have a 4 year degree in computer science.

Asking who is going to pay for something is envy?

Have you looked into this deeper than just hearing that the Obaminator is just giving away free stuff?? Do you understand the mechanics behind it? First of all, the universities have to take a 25% discount hit... He is giving away their stuff for free. Who do you suppose is going to have to pick up that slack? Oh yeah... Other students that are paying for college.

Why do you only care about yourself?

Taxes

Are you attempting to make the point that nothing is "free"?

Are you saying higher education for the population isn't beneficial for America at large?

Or are you most likely trying to say "if college is free for everyone it'll make a college education meaningless!", like most of your republican counterparts are without providing any evidence to substantiate that position?

 

[NLXSK1]

Education isnt free.

I pay thousands of dollars a year in property taxes to educate children that I dont have.

What I am asking is that you dont take more of the money I work hard to make and give it away as free stuff to other people.

It is a simple request.

It is a simple request..

Do you know how much money you make goes to subsidize banks, to pay for their unregulated (thanks to republican politicians) bets?

Goes directly into politicians pockets?

How little goes to NASA? Medicare/Medicaid? Other safety social net programs?

No, of course you don't...

To people like you, all the taxes go to the poor people who don't actually work for it, don't need it, or who otherwise scam the government for it.. They're too lazy to work for it, so they vote democrat and hope they pass more government extensions to keep the party rolling..

If you care about your money going to poor people who didn't earn it, why wouldn't you care about your money going to rich people who didn't earn it? Oh, because you thought they earned it.. You were duped into believing that because they're rich, they must have earned it.. Their position, their status demands it, right...! Without these rich people running the companies (even though they get switched out year after year..) said companies would just go under, or perform poorly, negating the investments of the shareholders!.. Those are the guys we're looking after after all... Except even their stock goes down.. While CEO pay goes up.. so weird.. company performs poorly, CEO walks away in riches, American people are footed the bill and business continues as usual.. Bankers pay republicans, republicans deregulate banks, bankers and republicans get paid at the expense of the American taxpayer..

Welcome to America, land of the thief, home of the slave..

How do you figure a rich person didnt earn their money? Was the money not earned?

How do you equate a poor person getting a free check from someone elses tax dollars with someone who has actually created jobs?

Moreover, how do you manage to give the politicians that wrote the laws a pass while going after bankers?? Are you a total fool?

The politicians are taking ALL of the tax money and spending it on what they want. I want to give them less power and money and you keep arguing with me...

Insanity is trying to make you see logic or reality past that fabrication you call an ideology.

 

[Padawanbater2]

I didn't say all rich people didn't earn their money. I asked you why money going to poor people that they didn't earn is any different than money going to rich people they didn't earn. So what's the difference?

How do you equate a poor person getting a free check from someone elses tax dollars with someone who has actually created jobs?

I haven't

Moreover, how do you manage to give the politicians that wrote the laws a pass while going after bankers?? Are you a total fool?

You must have missed the part where I blame politicians wholeheartedly for this problem..

Bankers hold a substantial part of the blame as well. Anyone who denies as much is delusional.

The politicians are taking ALL of the tax money and spending it on what they want.

Total bullshit. Prove your total bullshit.

I want to give them less power and money and you keep arguing with me...

Abortion, intelligent design, sex education, etc.. You want to restrict the state in favor of the federal government, why lie about it?

What the fuck are you talking about.

I want government out of all of that shit. The government is not supposed to take care of people. It is supposed to defend us from evil shits while we live our lives in freedom. That is not is what his happening today.

Abortion, dont want the government involved at all in healthcare including abortion. I want schools to turn out kids that can read and do basic math, not teach sex ed. In fact, I want education privatized with a voucher so parents can choose where they send their kids. CITIZENS RIGHTS!!! Intelligent design? WTF???

I want to restrict the power of the state and federal government and reduce legislation and the intrusion of government into our lives and you want them to make you breakfast and make sure you get to school in the morning.

Padwan...

When you sit down to do your first real estate deal and they tell you that the seller is going to be paying for x,y and z. Look around the table. Is the agent going to put any of his money into the deal? Is the seller going to put any of his money into the deal? Hell no!! You are the only guy with money at the table.

Same thing in your scenario. The government doesnt have any money and the poor people by definition dont have any money. Yet somehow you think that the rich guy not having to pay as much is the same as the poor guy getting something for free.

Until your mind gets untangled you are not going to be able to figure it out. When your money is on the table it suddenly becomes more clear.

Is that why the Rich pay a lower percentage of their income on taxes than the poor?

You support using tax dollars to send kids to private for profit schools that do not have to prove they are teaching kids anything?

 

[NLXSK1]

The rich pay more than the poor do, quite a bit more. Your percentage game not withstanding.

I would be happy to have a fixed amount on everyone between 10 and 20% total taxes including on the poor who use a much larger amount of the infrastructure. The rich pay people to work who also pay taxes which nobody seems to want to account for.

Never said anything close to that.

I want parent choice. Schools would prove they are teaching kids to parents every day. If the parents didnt like what or how much the child was being taught then they can send them to a different school. Competition would weed out the bad teachers and/or schools. You want to continue what we have now is forcing parents to send their children to ineffective government schools with no choice. That is pretty fucking sick if you ask me.

My tax dollars are going to pay for it, I would rather the kid actually get an education. Maybe you are more interested in the teachers salaries and pensions.

Voucher schools are not accountable.
In theory and practice parents can send their kids to schools run by the nation of Islam, new black panthers and the church of Jesus Christy the Warrior

Do you have any original thoughts?
Some anti union right wing politician fed you this bullshit and you eat it right up.

I am supposed to come up with some option no one has ever thought of before?

My platform is my own. I am closer to a libertarian than a liberal. You dont like the platform so you attack me for it. All I want is for the government to get out of my business and leave me alone but you are not happy with that situation.

All I want in education is for parents to have a choice and be able to send their kids to effective schools. You offer no solutions except the party platform and accuse me of not having original thought...

Irony of the day folks..
