Hey Obama...

Hillsdale may not be on yours, but you're on our list.

There are probably many, many colleges that don't want to be included! (Or won't, after they see their results.)

Here's some interesting stuff I found about the "College Scorecard":

"The new data also show, according to the White House, that at 53 percent of all institutions of higher education, fewer than half of former students are earning more than the typical high school graduate."

"The data, which the Education Department compiled with federal tax records, capture only students who received a federal loan or grant to attend college. Based on that information, the department is publishing two new postcollege salary metrics."

"The first shows the share of a college’s former students who, six years after they entered college, earn more than about $25,000 per year. That threshold is designed to show how many students are making more than what the average high school graduate earns."

"A second earnings metric is more long term. It shows the median salary of former students 10 years after they began college. For both metrics, the earnings data capture former students who received federal student aid at a college, regardless of whether they graduated."

I'm kinda wondering if Obama actually understands what's in this, and if he does, I'm curious why he didn't bury it even deeper than his own college records.

And the most maddening part of that is that parents go into debt, mortgage their homes, and the kids go into debt, or in the case of loans and grants the taxpayers go into debt, for their own children to be taught to hate them, to hate this country, to hate themselves if they're white, to hate morality, and to love or at least accept as "normal", evil. People go into debt, pay to have their own children absorbed into the Borg which opposes everything decent people always stood for! It's the most amazing con anyone ever came up with-make people pay for their own kids to learn to hate them and to learn destroy good and support evil!

Seeing that picture, this was my thought:

He’s gifted alright.

Gifted with assumed citizenship...

Gifted with a college education at a college he couldn’t afford with grades that didn’t qualify him...

Gifted with public office in the Illinois Senate where he did absolutely nothing...

Gifted with public office in the U. S. Senate where he did absolutely nothing...

Gifted with the Presidency of the United States of American, where he finally went to work trying to destroy our nation.

Yes, gifted...

And then insult from the bully pulpit any who choose to remain independent.

Hillsdale has put four players into the NFL (Andre Holmes, Jared Veldheer, Chester Marcol and Bruce McLenna).

If THAT’S not real I don’t know what is.

Hillsdale should take this as a point of pride.

I cannot speak for Hillsdale, but when my daughter graduated in Grove City College ( the other college mentioned in this article ) in 2012 ( a particularly bad time to find a job ), within 6 months, EVERY SINGLE graduate of Grove City had either a job related to their field of study or are in graduate school.

Grove City College was also excluded. It offers 4 year degrees. Like Hillsdale, it takes no federal funding and offers a classical liberal education, and it’s students tend to be conservative Christians.

I wouldn’t put it past him that those two schools were left off for political reasons, however the list may have been made from data collected from paperwork the other schools submitted for the purpose of obtaining federal money.

Didn’t he receive a tenure track position at the University of Chicago Law School?

Unfortunately you are 100% correct.

If I had the ability I would make everyone get paid 100% from there employer and they would have to write the check to fedzilla and state themselves. I guarantee if the average man was given all his wages and them he had to pay it out on his own the tax rates we have now would not exist. By having the employer take it out the employee doesn’t feel the sting since he never had the money in his hand.
Everyone I ever had to 1099 understood just how much money fedzilla collected and hated it.
If you think the elites don’t have it engineered to a tee you are wrong, they know exactly how to distract and change the issue so the average Joe doesn’t feel the penetration they are so good at without even a substance to reduce the friction.

Exactly, people have become used to it being the “norm” that the state and fed just slice off a chunk of their pay without them ever seeing it, one of many instances of evil being “normed”. The government knows that we would have more of a chance to oppose them if we to actively hand our money over to support their big spending budget items, instead of them just taking it and pretending that that means support for everything they do. And God help you if you stick your head up from the crowd and say “I don’t support this, and I’m not forking over my money”, they will bring the fulll weight of the IRS to bear against you-funded by you. Over time, this government has got “we the people” right where they want us, and we get the privilege of paying for the screwing too.

What a mean, petulant, small excuse for a man, an American, our President.

This is not surprising, considering that Hillsdale is a REAL supporter of our U.S. Constitution.
