so this is a racial issue? USA shouldn't deal with spiraling out of control higher education costs because 85% of the blacks at a jr college chose a career path you disagree with? |

Free college means higher enrollment, less committed students, and much higher drop out rates (I mean it's much easier to drop a class you didn't pay for, right?). This will greatly diminish the already questionable quality of education. The schools will have to hire more faculty to keep up with the influx of students. More tax money will have to be appropriated to pay for the increasing cost of a free education. Corners start getting cut by universities as budgets start to get whittled down, and the overall quality of output drops so significantly employers no longer look favorably upon a college graduate for open positions.
I always looked at college as something that wasn't for everyone, and something you had to make a strong commitment towards. So many times I've heard students say, and I've said it myself, "if I didn't already pay for this class, I would drop it!" -- take away the admission fee, and what's to stop them? Give anything away free, and people will expect more. Make them pay, and they'll appreciate what they have. |

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.... |
She's living in a dream world lol

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. |

also, given that supply of jobs requiring higher education is limited, it's debatable if more people graduating is even a benefit in the first place... |
i posted a link to an article outlining several of the many benefits to free public higher education in an earlier post.
saddling young adults with mountains of college debt upon graduation isn't a motivator, in fact, it's the opposite, it's a drain- on them and on society. |

cavuto is a cocksucker for cornering that girl on 1% taxation and completely side-stepping the crust of the topic- you know, education. she's simply a college student who participated in organizing an event. she's not a politician or professional on the media tour and she's certainly NOT a seasoned interviewee of gotcha journalism and capable of playing that bullshit game Cavuto played. |

Yes, I had to put myself through school, and I'm a better person for it. And one thing I learned my freshman year from my Macro Economics professor; there ain't no such thing as a free lunch. Someone, somewhere is picking up the bill. |

besides, if this college wouldn't have been free, people would still go there, and accomplishments would still have been made... also, "mineistaken" suggested that a free school should result in "smartest" applicants, and yet the list of accomplishments is quite modest, certainly not any more impressive than paid schools during that time... what gives? |

nope. right. to wit: Quote:

moreover, your argument is predicated on pure randomness because, guess what mr college drop-out, k-12 is fucking free, the cutoff at 12th grade is purely arbitrary combined with the fucking fact the first 13 years of school are free. yet you think adding 4 years to that is some sort of horrible entitlement. no wonder you confuse forward thinking with backwards thinking. |
