there are however some benefits to paying it yourself, some Rob pointed out above.. if you pay for it yourself, you are more likely to take it more seriously, more likely to put more thought into choosing the right major, more likely to pursue a profitable degree, more likely to graduate, more likely to actually use the degree after you graduate, etc....

i think you can grasp the point i was trying to make when i stated we're the only country in the free world that doesn't offer free higher ed. in a ridiculous thread like this, where i'm told i have backwards thinking, i'm not going to handhold fuckwads that insult my view through a thoroughly fact-checked post. they can simply gofuckthemselves.
most importantly, if you want to start splitting hairs on fact-checked posts, you might want to start with your own "some benefits to paying for college yourself" points, none of which have any factual support, not to mention any logic, i.e., why does anyone even pass elementary school since they don't have to pay for it?
and Rob's view is he had to pay so everyone else should also, let's not beat around the bush about that.
either way. Cavuto is a fuckwad cocksucker for cornering that girl on richy rich tax percentages.
and plenty of very smart people can grasp the benefits of free public higher education, maybe it's rocket science at teh gfy, who knows. just like elementary school, intermediate school and high school are free.
