LOL Go ahead make things up. I don't think they are the same thing but in today's world the govt. subsidies of college education (which is what we are talking about on this thread) is why they cost so much. If you can't see that the I can only believe that you are somehow involved in public education and benefit from the govt subsidies.
Each state used federal funding from the Morrill Land-Grant Colleges Acts of 1862 and 1890 to set up land grant colleges that specialized in agriculture and engineering.
Did it stop there? No! Now we have grants and subsidies to all colleges except the truly private ones.
Do you think that we have benefited from federal money running colleges?
Yes, education benefits as it should. This is one area that is useful to the entire country, not a selected few. Education teaches people to fish for themselves, to contribute to society, and to help carry the load.
Which “truly private ones” don’t get grants and subsidies?
No, federal money should not run education—but supporting education is a worthy use of tax dollars.
Perhaps all subsidies should be eliminated. Are you on board?
