So, if you live in a good school district in Ohio, not only do you have to pay for your kid to go to college, you have to pay for scumbags to drop out after a year.

Obama is laughing.

Available academic majors include:

Listed in order of lowest to highest intellectual standards:

Journalism
Political “Science”
Education
Art
Underwater Basket Weaving
Marshmallow Cooking

Even then, there will be lower than a 5% grad rate - (that is, until they lower the standards to congressional levels).

Free tutoring will be offered by MSM “journalists” in cheating and looking good whilst doing it.

In Florida and Georgia you can get free tuition for 4 years at a state university (if you’re a state resident), but it is merit based, not needs based. In Florida it’s paid for by money from the lottery. Qualification for the scholarship is based on your SAT/ACT score and GPA, then you have to keep a 3.0 GPA to maintain the scholarship.

My kids don’t qualify for needs based education, and my tax dollars go to those who do. Spreading the wealth. Obama-economics. The outs in his education plan are emphasized by the word “most” (most Americans and most students). My kids have to apply all over the place for merit scholarships while Obama and his libtard friends are handing out my tax dollars in needs based free educations for people I don’t know. Socialists. I’m expecting to get means tested out of Social Security. I’ll never make it out of middle class, because there won’t be any incentives to start up small business under Pelosi/Reid/Obama.

I have no problem offering a limited number of scholarships for actual scholars. I have a problem giving money to someone who think a scholarship is something that travels on water.

Our middle-class tax dollars at work. Not only do we have to purchase homes for the poor, we now have to pay for their children’s college education. Just great!

They don’t mention UT insisted that everyone on the university staff take a pay cut in order to “spread the wealth”?

When it comes to free educations you get what you pay for.
Complete and utter crap.
