    I think the effect on the average guys taxes are going to be negligible. Stupid to worry about it either way.

    As far as the pH of course I would expect hostility from a bitter atheist against the spelling of the saint name. ???

    Let's not be coy you supported free shit for a long long time. Unless you have changed your position on Healthcare free college dataadd a guaranteed weightguaranteed wage.

      I support "free shit" where it makes sense. The vast majority of it isn't for me though.

        And that's one major disagreement between us. I don't think anybody is not going to college because they can't afford it. Too many programs too many loans available. The reason college graduates are more successful is because they went through the trouble of getting the degree. When they pass out the degrees like toilet paper like high school graduation diplomas they won't mean anything anymore and people that need to hire someone will hire people with Advanced degrees. Also four more years of public school at the prices universities are charging will be a monstrous wait on the taxpayers. I know some of you people think the taxpayer is the goose that lays the golden eggs. But it's not. Successful people work harder to earn that success.

          I mean the bolded is just pretty damn incorrect to start with...

          Not to mention all of the people that do go to college, do take out the loans, and then deal with years/decades of interest payments. 

          The college tuition is a bubble waiting to burst. It has climbed higher than wages. A crazy amount. Other countries manage this, I would hope we could make the situation better too.

          Or a group of our country can hold out hope that some billionaire will trickle down all over them.......

            As they should. Or they shouldn't bother spending money on something that doesn't offer a return. Don't take out a loan for $10,000 Martin d-45 custom if you can't play the guitar.

            The college tuition is a bubble waiting to burst. It has climbed higher than wages. A crazy amount. Other countries manage this, I would hope we could make the situation better too.

             of course you can there are thousands if not millions of people earning good livings working in the institution system. You just destroy the entire University way of life and give everybody a free University of Phoenix online education.

            Or a group of our country can hold out hope that some billionaire will trickle down all over them.......

             power to the people. The problem isn't the money the problem is it seems like most Americans are too lazy to put in the work for the reward. Does it seem that way in Asia India the Middle East Etc ? Not so much. But it's easier to blame the rich man.

              And again on the education front one of the reasons Americans don't  in the work is because the poorest American has free Transportation Free Housing free food free medical care free cable television free cell phones almost free utilities. I would imagine poor people in India or Thailand or Mexico aren't living that well. But anybody with average intelligence who's willing to do some work can learn enough to make a living. But it's all too easy to get used to the path of least resistance. Which isn't that rough here in the USA.

                I'm just going to go with you being way, way too removed from the situation to really know anything about college, tuition, student loans, etc. That's become abundantly clear. We've seen the same with other posters on here as well. Hopefully we can fix the system before it financially handcuffs an entire generation. Until then we'll just hear from the "I walked to school uphill both ways" crowd that includes the people that can actually do something about it.

                  And like your cult leader Joe Biden said if you can learn to mine coal or build a tire you can learn to program. Probably true. Unfortunately for every five hundred Tire builders you need maybe one programmer.

                    And I will just go with you and your adolescent opinion that it's the rich man's fault. Learn to do something that most people can't do or don't want to do or are just too lazy to do and you should have some success. Or just print out a diploma from Joe Biden Free University and then sit around and bitch that you were overqualified.
