I stopped reading when I got to the words from poor quality for-profit institutions.

The more students, the more money for instructors.

They have learned well from the college level.

Everyone gets a trophy.

Overlooking the fact that all that money would probably do better trying to improve the 4 years of high school one goes prior to Community college.

Our public schools fail us, so we need to add 2 more years after high school so that they can finish reading and writing.

I don’t agree. Putting all of the SEIU thugs in prison would be “a step in the right direction.”

Gee. I wonder why the SEIU president would be saying that the government pumping more money into the community college system is a good idea?

But...but...if everybody gets educated they’ll see what a bunch of commie b@stards the SEIU is made up of. They don’t really want that, do they?

The “FREE SCHIT FAIRY” is gonna make it rain!!!

And anyone that dares to stand against it will be called someone that “wants to destroy the future of American Youth!”.

I can see this clearly. These are the same people that sold the sheeple on “HOPE!” and “CHANGE!” without ever being questioned on what that inane rhetoric meant.

“President Obama has announced a proposal to make two years of community college free...Sixty-one percent of faculty at America’s community colleges are part-time and often poorly paid...we need to ensure that the faculty they depend on have stable positions....”

Someone failed Economics 101?

The students aren’t going to have any more money to continue their education after 2 years. If he’s going to do this, offer the students a full ride 4 yr university degree with a 10k cash bonus at graduation for those with over a 3.5 GPA.

That’s how I’d propose it if I was a socialist.

Note that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to tax and spend for vote-winning intrastate college tuition purposes. So if SEIU President Henry wants federal support for students then this is what he must do.

President Henry needs to work with state and federal lawmakers to propose a college tuition amendment to the Constitution to the states. And if the states choose to ratify Mr. Henry’s amendment then Congress will have the constitutional authority that it needs to tax and spend for intrastate college tuition purposes and Mr. Henry will be a hero.

he smells more money for his union. but kids are entering college with reading skills only at grade 7 (recent news report, cited on FR).

any extra noney (do we have any?) will be far, far better spent trying to fix our public high schools

Yep! Just give us the rest of the nation that doesn’t owe the government 100,000 and we will be good to go.

I suggest that the nearest vocational school offer free service with the notion that 10% gets paid back every year after graduation. Accelerate the payment as you wish.

An electrician makes a hell of a lot more than a social studies major.
