I’ve been waiting for years for Congress to pull heads of university’s in front of hearings to explain why they are gouging the American people.

If big oil and big pharma are gouging then colleges are the masters because the formers have nothing on the latter when it comes to gouging.

You think Congress has any business beating up on "big pharma" and "big oil" and "big education" fro "gouging"????

Seriously?

Big Government is the biggest gouger of them all ... the others are pikers by comparison.

Congress is complicit, with the federal granting process. The taxpayer pays, but congress gets to be very generous with our resources. And since there are all these "grants" out there, colleges and universities have no incentive to hold costs down.

Colleges perform one task. They vet applicants. After that, you have a good idea that the kid is worthy or not. What they do for the next 4 years, and maybe longer, is pure poppycock.
