Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
College costs are just insane.
Wish State schools took more in state students vs prioritizing out of state tuition. You live in Maryland but UMD defers you bc they prioritize out of state tuitions from NJ/NY. Flip side, Nj/NY kid gets deferred by Rutgers bc they prioritize out of state tuitions from MD. So NJ/NY kid pays 50k a year to go to MD, MD kid pays 50k a year to go to Rutgers. Colleges get more money. Student lenders get more money. Parents and kids get straddled with decades of debt. I know we all cant be born into the billionaire Swanson food family but at least we should take their advice on "boot straps" and "hard work" from them. ----------------- College costs and health care .... we need some real solutions. College cant just be for the elite and international. Our kids get told to go to community college for 2 years .. so rich out of state and international kids can enjoy the "american college experience". |

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
One easy practical step
Increase annual amount the 529 funds can be used. Currently in Maryland its 10k per year. 10k isnt a door opener when our kids have to go to Rutgers for 50k a year bc out in state school de prioritizes us. Just increase it to 20k a year. Then have riders that increase it by 1k every year. |

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
If we're talking about fair share like Chico mentioned, tax the churches too then.

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
My church fund takes in money to provide a nightly mens shower and laundry to the local homeless, provides transportation to local elderly pop for doctors/dentist apt, subsidizes children services, provides counseling services to adults going thru divorce or death of spouse, etc I don’t need to mention the missions they are involved in here or abroad
Meanwhile, Ivy League shithole endowments are taken and invested into securities on Wall Street. Democrats are the elitest these days

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
If organized religion wants to keep flexing their influence into politics, let them pay taxes. The Catholic Church is one of the wealthiest organizations in the world and they don't exactly have a very transparent financial track record. And guess what, the Vatican has investments in some of the biggest companies in the world. Let's not pretend their hands are clean.

I'm enjoying the White House pointing out how much money in PPP loans conservative politicians had forgiven while those politicians bitch about student loans.

What Biden did isn’t even legal, even Pelosi said so. Like i said, this does nothing but help the elite and passes the cost to the working class. They refuse to do the hard work to bring down the cost of higher education, and give more hand outs for votes.
