Oh, the professors are foregoing their pay. That is so very noble of them. A total dedication to their chosen profession, now, a labor of love.
There will be a wall too - to keep people in
why don't they tell their rich retirees to stay in the state...why should the state pay out these rich pensions if the dopes are just going to move to Florida...
Public college plantation.
Ah, when its free, the multitudes will come from Meh-e-coh and far off places, be granted “legal status” and partake of “free” .... its just the way things happen.
Even though this is retarded beyond belief, too many millennial idiots still don’t like it. Wow. Nothing but full blown communism for these heads full of mush.
Wonder if they’re going to put an age limit in that bill.
Imagine that all New Yorkers of all ages applied for the “benefit”. And imagine that the state gets inundated with millions of New Yorkers applying for the free tuition.
The state would not be able to deny anyone of any age the benefit, else there will will be accusations of age discrimination. And, the applicants who work to pay for the benefit, would be more entitled to the benefit, since they’re the ones paying for that benefit; can’t deny them applying for the benefit that they’re the ones paying for it.
Pay 4 your own college and earn a better life somewhere else.
“I’m a New Yorker. I wouldn’t leave the state for anything,”
That’s what I thought.
Then I did.
Won’t go back.
[[Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude,]]
Ah but the rub is that it’s considered ‘voluntary servitude’ when they sign up for ‘free college’
They’re already there. I don’t think there’s a soul on the planet who is sitting there, going, damn, they’re giving away college for free if you agree not to leave New York for 4 years - I’m gonna go sneak across the border and go there right now!
But I betcha that there’s a Democrat sitting there, right this instant, trying to figure out how to pitch it so that illegals can take advantage of the program.
My thoughts exactly.
Cuomo the Communist.
Left to his own devices he’s be as bad as Mao.
Slave state
This program will be around for one or two years, until the esteemed math professor emeritus of SUNY realizes that:
Oops, my Excel spreadsheet dropped a coupl’a digits when it came up with a cost of $160 million!
NY Tax returns...
Why do they say it’s free?
Are the teachers working for no pay? If not, Who’s paying them?
In New York, homeowners pay yearly property taxes to fund public K-12 education. I’m sure this will increase to fund this payment. If so, why say that it’s free?
And why do people think it’s free? My kid was talking about some big scholarship a friend was on thinking of applying wanting advice. I said look into who funds it and whether you want to owe them they’re not just giving away an education no matter how much money they have It’s like ROTC only ROTC admits up front that you owe them
This whole thing is so stupid.
And good that they did. This will kill the actual bill because very few will willingly sign away their life like that.
And the ones who want a free education probably can’t keep up the GPA.
Less welfare and more workfare.
NYS GOP is an acronymic oxymoron.
I was that young and foolish once. Then I drew my first paycheck.
