Obama wants to nationalize 4 year college and put it under Dept of Ed, just like k-12. He said pretty much as such in his fake SOTU address.

Now they want to offer direct student loans.

Tomorrow to get said “loan” you will be required to volunteer with a branch of Obama’s Civilian Defense Force, green shirt and all, for a certain period of time.

It’s been 30 days, and the Nation we were just 1 year ago is crumbling before our eyes. This is just yet another example.

It might also be a backdoor way to regulate private colleges. Years ago the feds argued that if a private college or university had even one student with a federally-guaranteed loan or grant, it was enough to shoehorn in all the regulations that bind public schools, including all anti-discrimination laws prohibiting any discrimination against either employees, faculty or students on all the usual suspect classifications. The private schools fought it off but this appears to be another attempt. When I worked a couple decades ago for a private university, we were in the midst of this battle and we were discussing how we might help students finance their education without resorting to government aid. That discussion may become relevant again.
