College up 100% since 2000 VS healthcare of 55%

isn't that called price gouging? the idea of more students should bring cost down since they already have the buildings in theory.

Quote from TGregg:

The obvious solution has two parts:

More government subsidies

and

More education for everyone

That'll keep this curve going strong!
 
Quote from piezoe:

Those are nice stories, but I was wondering if you had something other than anecdotes. [as a personal note that may be of some interest to you, I'm not registered with any political party-- I consider myself rather apolitical.]

There is a very tasty Brazilian dish you can make with those black beans and the rice https://www.google.com/search?q=fei...s=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

Feijoada is a variation of the New Orleans specialty, red beans and rice. I think I prefer feijoada. Obviously both versions are of African origin.

When I first moved from the educated North to the Deep South and discovered that folks were actually eating kidney beans and white rice, I naturally thought wtf, might as well be eating potatoes and corn starch. But later I discovered that the particular combination of beans and rice provides a complete compliment of the essential amino acids, which you otherwise don't get if you eat only beans, or only rice.

And to my amazement the dish is very tasty, especially with a little Tobasco.

'I consider myself rather apolitical."

it does not matter what you say you consider yourself. you are a fabian socialist who look to gradually strangle the private sector through regulation.

"What we have going on right now is a combination of public education being moved, by the back door, to the private sector in small steps (a bad idea in my personal opinion) combined with inflation."
the last thing the US needs is a a semi -monopoly on higher education. the education of americans in lower grades and in higher schools has not been exactly successful.

The Fed keeps printing money
Post Office keeps printing stamps
Colleges keep printing diplomas
Which becomes worthless first?

I'll try to remember that!:D

just remember this

my high school was 14 miles from my house

so that's 28 miles r/t

and everyday

I would go the gas station

and hand them a one dollar bill

and tell them

give me a pack of Camels

and put the rest in the tank

(and back then, they pumped it for you, you didn't even have to get out of your car)
