Topic	Far right personalities are doing a terrible job of shaming Ocasio-Cortez

I didnt say that, just that college should be an option - there are plenty of opportunities for stuff like that here in NYC and most kids are already working at 14 to take care of their siblings so theyre usually already skilled. Just that some of my kids who have interests in higher education shouldnt have to worry about tuition on top of everything else going on and wondering if their best friend got home alive. Like I said, the option should be there - no student is mediocre there are just strengths and weakness us teachers learn to nurture A lot of people dont understand why I say shit like this but I love my kids college should be an option, but what exactly do you think will happen if everyone gets a free shot? The dropout rate is already 30% for first year kids. That number would only increase, calling for a massive demand to "do something about it" while at the same time the "good jobs" will start requiring a master's degree. You've now shunted kids through 4 years of crap they won't use, dicked over the kids that could benefit from it, and set the economy on fire because tuition costs will skyrocket from whatever they are now to whatever they can get away with under a government bureaucracy. I feel for you wanting to help your kids succeed, but you're not thinking with your teacher brain here. You're proposing something you think will help some of your kids without really considering the massive damage you could be doing to all the other kids in the country. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.
