Subsidize irresponsible conduct.

Of course, why not have other Americans pay for your 5 year vacation at a leftist university. Room and board and all the parties that you can handle plus communist indoctrination.

"Subsidize irresponsible conduct."
Its effect was to greatly subsidize colleges and universities. With family help I went through graduate school, then allowed myself to be drafted into the army. When I got out, I worked for four years for the fed government to save up enough money to go back to school for a PhD. I used the GI bill to pay for the tuition. I also used the GI Bill to only put down $500 to buy a house that I paid off in under three years. I feel the GI Bill was sort of a payoff for being forced to work for $60+ a month plus room and board. I do not feel guilty for taking advantaged of it.
