I read somewhere that in California there is a proposal to make "wealthy" parents pay more for their children to go to Universities.

Unless things have changed, it's pretty much always been this way. Those who claim you as a dependant cannot make above a certain level for you to claim student aid. I don't know if that's the same thing as what you describe, however.

It must really p_________ you off big time to read this kind of stuff.

Yes, this kind of nonsense drives me up the proverbial wall. Not just because I immigrated legally, but because no one screams bloodly murder when such BS comes to light. "Oh, they just want a better education!" Well, give me a break, but who the hell doesn't!?

Yes, you are right about that but this is a different thing altogether. They are proposing that so-called "wealthy" parents (people making over something like $90,000 a year) actually have to pay $3,000 more per year for their child to attend a University in California. It's fecking unbelievable!!! When can we start the revolution???
