I thought this was going to be about the cost of providing benefits to an expansive staff and administration for a typical university. As the article says, reduced state subsidy has already impacted tuition greatly.
We have to decide if we are a nation that is dedicated to providing it’s citizens freedom and liberty, or if we are dedicated to providing welfare and pensions and medicare.
We know the former works to create wealth and opportunity, we know that latter destroys wealth and opportunity.
But too many (including so-called conservatives and tea-party members) really want to keep medicare (unsustainable) and avoid obamacare (more unsustainable).
The real answer is freedom and liberty - an immediate end to all extra-constitutional programs, but the “gimme-gimme-gimme free-stuff brigade” of “me first” Americans and chronologically-gifted Americans will not stand for not getting their benefits.
I never thought I’d support the party of “Vote for me, the other guys want to cut your medicare” because it used to mean you were a liberal democrat. That is the GOP now....

Yep. Two leftwing, globalist, big government, small liberty parties. There really is a vacuum for conservative representation out there. The Geriatric Old Plotters are false, and the ‘third party’ alternatives are jokes.
