This is another one of those "we are ENTITLED to the tax payer dime, no strings attached". Socialist thinking, pure and simple.

To copy another FR poster "you take the king's shilling, you do the king's bidding". No one forces these schools to take this money, and if the college goes out of business b/c they don't take govt. funding, well that is one less socialist crap-hole out there corrupting the minds of our youth.

What, you say that private colleges are unaffordable to most of the public? There goes that socialist thinking again, who said college attendence is a entitlement or right?

"we are ENTITLED to the tax payer dime, no strings attached".

The liberals invented strings attached federal funding in the '60's.
It was called 'Social Engineering'.

the fact of the matter is, anyone with a high school diploma can go to college. one of the biggest lies that the left tells the american people is that the opportunity isn't there for everyone. when i look back on my college years, i distinctly remember receiving grants and student loans to help pay for my education. for low income individuals, those benefits are even higher!! and i went to a state school mind you!! and to top that off, most of the students that attend private institutions are given financial aid from the school's endowment fund or from some other benefactor's trust. they never pay the 30K+ it costs to attend. so the next time that you hear the argument that not everyone has access to post-secondary education, you tell them otherwise.
