| tennisdude818 07/22/18 5:12:05 AM #39 | BWLurker posted... Also major based tuition. Give more incentive for people to get STEM degrees and less liberal arts. A much simpler way to achieve that is by getting the government out of student loans so lenders face the same risk as in other markets. Id be more willing to lend money to a student who is studying engineering rather than a student studying political science or critical race theory because I want to be repaid. This would also drive tuition down because colleges still would need to fill seats. Maybe they would cut a bunch of loss programs like tennis. I didnt make the university any cash while playing on the tennis team. --- "I have never understood why it is greed to want to keep the money you have earned but not greed to want to take somebody else's money."

The public sector fucked up public schooling so now everyone thinks they have to go to college. I work in finance and to be honest, thats not a field where college should be required. I learned way more from the CFA and at work that I ever could from university. Heck I still say that marketing and finance don't practically require it either. Would you rather hire a typical college grad with a major in your field? Or somebody who started an apprenticeship in your field when they turned 18 (assuming you aren't a doctor or something like that)? Same goes for people who teach themselves how to code. The student loan bubble will force Americans to reexamine their attitude towards college IMHO. Of course a wrongheaded government program like "free college" is likely to just mess up the economy. --- "I have never understood why it is greed to want to keep the money you have earned but not greed to want to take somebody else's money."

| tennisdude818 07/21/18 9:36:21 AM #17 | Annihilated posted... Social Security running out of money doesn't mean everyone stops receiving benefits, they just receive less of them. Most of the money comes from people paying into the system right now, and right now there aren't enough relative to the beneficiaries. The reserve fund is supposed to be a fail safe. Thats not how SS was advertised.

This is how Bill Clinton's fake "surplus" was achieved. https://www.mises.org/library/surplus-hoax Imagine a corporation suffering losses and being deep in debt. In order to boost its stock prices and the bonuses of its officers, the corporation quietly borrows funds in the bond market and uses them not only to cover its losses but also to retire some corporate stock and thereby bid up its price. And imagine the management boasting of profits and surpluses. But that's what the Clinton Administration has been doing with alacrity and brazenness. It suffers sizeable budget deficits, increasing the national debt by hundreds of billions of dollars, but uses trust funds to meet expenditures and then boasts of surpluses which excites the spending predilection of politicians in both parties. --- "I have never understood why it is greed to want to keep the money you have earned but not greed to want to take somebody else's money."

The fact that we have such a one sided relationship with Israel that the media doesnt talk about, and the fact the media becomes giddy when we attack Israels enemies really shouldnt be normal. The only time the MSM liked Trump was when he bombed Assad. Thats not an example of giving coverage to abnormal, that an example of giving favorable coverage to the war machine. I dont know why I should take these pundits seriously. They are are the wrong side of history during every episode of hysteria about a foreign country. And US intelligence isnt any better when it comes to this. Seeing the left so willing to eat up the Russia hysteria at face value would be shocking to 2004 Democrats, but I guess most people dont have the consistency of guys like Glenn Greenwald and Ron Paul. --- "I have never understood why it is greed to want to keep the money you have earned but not greed to want to take somebody else's money."
