I’ve always said that we the people should pay for some kids to get a college education.
Only in STEM fields. None of those gender studies, ethics or sociology degrees.. etc etc.
You become a doctor for free but need to work where you are needed for ten years.
Also base the scholarships off of qualifications not equity.

But no… let’s send billions to Ukraine


I totally agree to a certain extent, but I do think degrees that people make fun of are often needed too.
I know a lot of artist for example. All of them have masters degrees. Some are designers, some teach advanced art.
They are all contributing to society. People are ignorant about things they don't understand. Art is needed for things like
medical drawings, abstract design and conceptulization. Almost every product you use and touch had art involved as much as math or science.

Gender studies are needed as we are dealing with a crisis with students, parents and teachers, and those issues aren't going away.

Mental health professionals are in dire need, and is one of the biggest career opportunities in the coming decades.

Here's a phrase you might want to study up on:

TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION.

Look it up!

ETA: And while we're on that topic, using the tax money that I paid to liquidate ill-advised loans that other people took out on their on volition is exctly that, TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION, unless they are going to pay off everyone else's ill-advised loans as well.

The entire transgender push along with the removal of parents rights, porn in the schools and the push by many in governent to decriminalize child molestation.


The first 3 things you mention are VASTLY exaggerated by Q types, and the Last thing is just a fantasy from the same people. Projection.

Can you give me examples of any of it being widespread? What porn are you talking about, and what schools is it in? While transgender folks are certainly higher in numbers now than ever before, what is this push that you're referring to? Specific examples please.

Also, as a father of 5, you're going to have a really hard time convincing me that any of my parental rights have been taken away, but let's hear it.

This is not a healthy line of thinking.

Student loan debt is the largest sector.

There is no guarantee that by paying off the loans that the money would then go back it it he economy.

The reverse is true. It won’t go back into the economy.

Taxpayers don’t need to be saddled with I’ll advised student loans for kids that shouldn’t have gone to college to begin with.

College was not meant for everyone.

Let’s get just……a little… deeper…

What benefits do Ukrainian refugees get in the US? Refugee benefits include the Reception and Placement Program. Matching Grant, Preferred Communities, Refugee Cash and Medical Assistance, and Refugee Support Services. They can also access mainstream benefits like TANF, SNAP, and SSI (if appropriate).

U.S. colleges support students from Ukraine

No it wasn’t meant for everyone. I think we are doing it completely backwards.
When I was in Europe, in some countries there were tests and those tests determined if you were college material or if you’d work a service/industry job. The tests were much much harder than our ACT/SAT’s.

Maybe we should make it harder to get into college and make it like we do for k-12.
Don’t we want a very educated society?
I’m not even saying we have to make it free, but let’s face it, it has turned into something completely unacceptable.

The most educated country in the world is S. Korea. Their college fees are a fraction of ours.

not only that but look at how many people are going to sites like "Fans Only". 190million as on this posting (this is according to Google with 2.1 million of those being content creators) The more normalized it is for people to sell a sexualized version of themselves, the more exploitable the masses will be.

So what exactly does illegal Immigration, foreign wars, and student loan forgiveness have in relation to each other? .... other than they all cost tax payers money? Everything the government does costs taxpayers money.

I do not see a reason why any invidal person shouldn't have distinct opinions on all three topics (and the many others that we face as a nation).

Or to put it another way, just because I think my house needs a new roof, and a new cesspool... which costs a lot of money ... doesn't mean I might as well put in a swimming pool just because I'm already spending money on my house. They are all distinct issues that have nothing to do with each other ... other than spending money.

IDK about the undocumented workers, but if you believe polls, the most recent ones have been showing that most americans now disapprove of Ukraine aid, or at least believe we have been sending too much.
I personally think you're right altogether.

I feel sorry for your children as ignorance, denial wont help them get through this life

Your response is I , me and my which could be true but I am referencing all 330 million Americans. It is also a typical Democrat response as you follow the playbook well. I am not Q nor MAGA. You can read the Q threads and look me up. You wont find squat.

You dont read the MSM newspapers?

Well, I guess screw OUR kids,
we are going to be broke because our money is going to be spent on:


If it makes you feel any better, while SCOTUS didn't allow Biden to pay off student loans through the HEROES Act, Biden recently used the Public Servant Loan Forgiveness program that was created in 2007 to allow $9 billion in loan forgiveness for public servants.

Don't feel sorry for my kids. They're wonderful kids, and I've given them a wonderful life.

Your link doesn't do anything to strengthen your case, nor did you answer any of my questions.

I certainly did. You implied that I am Q aligned with that faction. Check out the Q thread and ye shall seek your answer me Lord. I hardly ever read it. Probably less than 6 times as I discovered early on that Q lied.

Did the link I attach open? It was written by the Associated Press.

Also I want to make it clear that I don’t think what is going on can just continue forever.
I do think at some point we have to draw a line in the sand and change things.
I think this is a good time to do that.

One of the biggest problems in the US is that we like problems to fester until they are soooo bad that we have to deal with them in an emergency manner.
