The last I knew, Harvard had an endowment worth 36 bil. That’s just Harvard. It didn’t accumulate that money in a vacuum. Neither did any of the others sitting on their chunks of change.

But rather than tax that money, how’s about we just eliminate every damn dime of federal spending to every institution of higher learning.

Would you object to that, too...?

No, that is exactly what I would advocate.

And really, Harvard didn’t perpetrate any sort of fraud on its students—or give them anything that wasn’t worth it to them, overwhelmingly, on average.

You raise a fine point. Those schools with the endowments to survive confiscation as so many leftist-when-it-comes-to-free-money-for-me Freepers on this thread want have virtually no overlap with the schools that supposedly told pigs’ ears that their schools could turn them into silk purses.
