Aren’t they going to college so that they may become rich one day?

33 Comments on College Dopes Say The Rich Should Pay For Their Education

  1. Are they going to college to become rich? No. They go to college because mom and dad want them out of the house for at least part of the day, and these idiots go to college because that’s what all their friends are doing. Never seen a more rigid group of conformists who all copy each other. The standouts of this age on campus are all conservative.

  2. Ironically, all a hammer & sickle insignia seems to mean is “I’m too fucking lazy to work, but I’ll certainly steal what you’ve worked for.”
    Odd that his peers (HS Class of 2010 or thereabouts, I’m guessing) who got a STEM education are making 6 figures and contemplating home ownership right now, instead of bitching about what everyone else has accomplished, while trying to take advantage of it.
    How dey do dat?

  3. Poor little rich kids.

    Flash back: It was 0bama’s administration that created the college tuition crisis when they guaranteed government funded student loans. He’s rich now so go get your college tuition money from him.

  4. I’m so sick of the lie that progs love to spread about money as a finite number. “1% of the people control 90% of the wealth,” or “the top 3 richest families control over 50% of the wealth,” etc. etc.

    Look, progs, it’s real simple: If you perform a job, your pay has nothing to do with the wealth other people have accumulated.

    When was the last time you were going to get paid for a job, but your boss said, “Sorry, we can’t pay you for that because 1% of the people have 90% of the money so that leaves you with nothing”? Never, that’s the last time you were told that.

    Or more to the point, your ability to afford education, healthcare, housing, food, etc. also has nothing to do with the money other people have.

    The same opportunities are available to everyone regardless of what someone already has accomplished.

    Taking from the accomplished only diminishes your own potential returns.

  5. Walking around with a hammer and sickle on your shirt is no different than Charles Manson carving a swastika between his eyes.

    He’s a murderous lunatic. What’s your excuse?

    The upper middle class coopting the symbolism of the union of working class and poor.

    Its blend of an appeal to the authenticity that they lack and gaslighting.

    Excuse me, good xir, how much will you pay me for these fine carbon offsets? Oh. I’m sorry. You seem to have mistaken that for a choice.

    > The same opportunities are available to everyone regardless of what someone already has accomplished.

    Because the King will, gladly, peacefully, obey your edicts. As long as you pronounce them under a paper crown.

    > Taking from the accomplished only diminishes your own potential returns.

    Don’t war “game” much, do ya’, sweetums?

  7. Anonymous, you seem to conflate a mandatory charge with a voluntary contribution. Why, no one knows, maybe because you think I’m ruled by a king and don’t spend enough time hacking world government computers.

  8. Morons. Even in countries where higher education is free, it does not cover private colleges. Why should the government pay for people to attend private universities that can afford to pay the likes of Elizabeth Warren $400,000 to teach one class?

  9. I’m confused, do they mean that any one $1.00 dollar richer than them should pay for their college or all those over a certain income qualifier like Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton and that squaw lady?

  10. I got a revolutionary new idea!

    If I want something, I’ll pay for it!
    If YOU want something, you pay for it!

    How’s that?
    Don’t like it?
    Then Fuck Off, Eat Shit, and Die!

    See, free shit has no value: it’s worth what it costs you – nothing.
    Is that plain enough?

  11. Little commie lover wouldn’t have lasted half an hour serving in a Soviet era sub. Would have been puking his guts out by then. At which point, his CO would have probably launched his sorry punk ass out of one of the torpedo tubes

    That’s literally true. There’s a old Soviet submarine docked in San Diego. You can tour it. And even with the hatches open for years, there’s still a slight diesel smell that made my daughter feel a little queasy after about 15 minutes

  12. A college diploma doesn’t prove one is educated. In many cases it’s only evidence of years learning so many things that are not true.
    All of these parasites first should be required to take – Self Motivation 101 – aka, if you do not work you do not eat. Or TANSTAAFL – there ain’t no such thing as a free lunch.

  13. I think my favorite word is FREE. But someone had to pay for it, pay to deliver, sell it, ect. I don’t understand young people who feel it’s owed them, they are special. Special Ed, maybe and the lack of liberal politicians.

  14. I have a solution if you spend A couple of hundred thousand dollars on a Sports car and don’t make any payments it gets repossessed right. So If the government has to bail out college students the GOVERNMENT OWNS THE DEGREE. The student in default CANNOT USE THAT DEGREE FOR ANY REASON UNTIL THEY PAY THE GOVERNMENT BACK INCLUDING ALL INTEREST. Especially using it to get a job. The maximum education they can put on a employment application is a HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA. Make that part of the deal to forgive student loan debt and see how many want to do it then

  15. If it ain’t worth YOU paying for it, why would you think it’s worth ME paying for it?

    If something has value to you, you will acquire it at whatever cost seems commensurate. If you think the price too high, you will forgo. If the price seems too low, you may question the value.

    Education is no different from any other commodity – healthcare, automobiles, gasoline, diamonds, asparagus, beans, corn, &c. If you truly believe that an “education” has some value, you will find a way to pay for it. Asking someone else to pay for it implies that you believe it has no value.

    You pay for it! I’m not spending MY money on that!
