    Let me try to explain. College for All costs less than the increase in military spending passed in 2017. That is the reality.https://twitter.com/lannydavis/status/1080081531769638914 …

    Let me try to explain. Politicians talk a lot about “free” college education for all. But as you state, it’s not “free.” Taxes will be needed to pay for it. Progressives need to face the reality that using the term “free” is misleading. Ok?

        As someone who served I can't tell you more about the ridiculous bureaucracy and wastefulness of our military branches. So much money goes to waste it's insane.

        Boondoggles for Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman are not “national security” or “supporting the troops”. It’s corruption, plain and simple.

        Thousand dollar nails are just a symptom. So much money is wasted through the "use it or lose it" budgetary system that penalizes thrift in the armed forces. "Didn't spend ALL of your budget? Guess you won't EVER be needing that money."

        No they aren't. The wealthy are hoarders, nothing more. They don't stimulate the economy, the middle class does.

        Yeah? How many jobs do the middle class create again? Once the rich gets tired of being taxed to death, they will leave and take their jobs and money with them. Then who will stimulate the economy?

        At the same time, if the US didn't continuously fund its military to hammer home its dominance, the US Dollar would lose most of its value, and there would be college for nobody in the US.

        You’re from a country that has free college and somehow doesn’t have the strongest military in the world. How can you believe that the 2 are mutually exclusive?

        This is not reality. 16 million students in colleges. Average cost of in-state tuition is $10,000. For JUST tuition it's $160B. Increase in defense budget in 2017 was $108B I'm for free college for all, but lets work from facts.

        Not all college students go to state schools...in fact many do not. The proposal is to make state education free.

        Because that’s what we need... MORE kids in college that are completely unprepared! College already is free for low-income families. Cost isn’t the issue; it’s preparedness. We need to start eliminating the bottom 2-3% of students every year after 8th grade so the rest can thrive

        College is free for a very very small fraction of students. Any student who is qualified should have access to higher education without incurring a lifetime of debt. That is the point.

        And instead of making it free, let’s go after the malevolent marauders that are forcing students, at gunpoint I presume, to attend overpriced private universities instead of eminently more affordable options like 2yrs of CC followed by 2yrs at a 4-yr in-state school.

        Thats definitely an option many people are going for now, but it still leaves you with a lot of debt. My CC degree will cost me about $16-17k, not including hundreds of dollars for books and any equipment. Then 2 years at my state school will be $32k+. It's not cheap.

        No grants/scholarships available to you/your family? Seems like a lot unless you’re coming from an upper middle class (or higher income strata) family. Are you working part-time during the year to offset the cost of college?

        Some scholarships are available but they are very, very specific criteria and small. I live on my own and work 40+ hours a week. Received bare minimum student loans because I'm 22 (you're classified as a "dependent" until you're 24 unless you're married or military) - they don't
