Great. That way they won’t get hurt when the stupid student loan program gets put back into a normal process. Hope the Canadians are ready for the American students.

Why not the American university in Mexico? Why not Mexico?

At that point, they’ll shift to Germany:

Think the Germany populace is mad about Muslims? Wait til they meet our millenials.

The illegals have to go somewhere.

I'm sure they would rather be in Canada than go back to their hell holes south of the border.

The old style of “creative, but still hard as nails” college professor popularized in various Robin Williams movies would not receive tenure today in some colleges. The rowdy, lazy students would have more say over who works there than the Board of Reagents.

That’s OK. The kid was a Trumpster and Mr. GG2 took him to the range last year to teach him to shoot. My niece loves Bernie.

Have a distant cousin who is in Denmark for a course of study in nutrition. No idea of the details, but apparently its become an area with a fairly high degree of specialization, and a lot of the leading researchers are outside the US.

And I just want to say one thing about complaints “snowflakes”

They’re our future. People enjoy hating them as a group it’s bigotry and it comes from a SNL mentality

These kids are the ones whom I tried to get my peers to listen about twenty years ago. The majority of them were put into day care at age six months. No mommy to go to at any time of day in those years before they could not even walk or talk

That is emotionally crippling

Now they have obama’s mess a twenty trillion dollar debt and a double digit unemployment rate to deal with and a 60 grand average college debt,

This article pretends they’re like hippies having

Whatever people expect from these ‘robots’ is too much after what we baby boomers have done to them

I’m sick. I had to watch a bunch of idiotic liberal fifty somethings guffawing at the millennial song last weekend.

58 million abortions in thirty years. Bunch of idiots

We've joked about shooting all the liberals to the Moon or Mars, but a real solution was right in front of our noses the whole time: Canada! Canadian flag photo: Flag ca-flag1.gif Good luck with the little hosers. Take some actors too, eh?

More great news. May they fall in love with liberal Canada and spend the rest of their immature lives there.

Makes me think of Carter pardoning the VietNam draft dodgers. They go, but then they want back in.

President Pence might amnesty them in 2029 or so.
But you’re right, like the actors it’s all talk.

And it wouldn’t be fair to Canadians.
The ones I’ve known were all right.

To: ameribbean expat; All
For what it’s worth, please consider the following.

Thomas Jefferson had indicated that the states would need to expressly constitutionally delegate to the feds the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for INTRAstate schooling purposes.

“The great mass of the articles on which impost is paid is foreign luxuries, purchased by those only who are rich enough to afford themselves the use of them. Their patriotism would certainly prefer its continuance and application to the great purposes of the public education, roads, rivers, canals, and such other objects of public improvement as it may be thought proper to add to the constitutional enumeration of federal powers [emphases added].” —Thomas Jefferson: 6th Annual Message, 1806.

But since the states have never constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to tax and spend for intrastate schooling purposes, federal dollars being spend for vote-winning schooling purposes are arguably state revenues stolen by the feds in the form of unconstitutional taxes.

“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.

The states need to eliminate the unconstitutional middleman, the unconstitutionally big federal government, from “helping” to manage state revenues. The states would probably find a tsunami of new revenues that they wouldn’t know what to do with after they get the fed’s big nose out of state affairs.

”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.

So low-information students looking at Canada evidently don’t understand that POTUS is not Santa Claus.

>> “No one wants to go to the University of Mexico???” <<

Long time ago, a friend sent his daughter to Med School at the University of Mexico, mostly because she couldn’t gain admission in the US.

After several years and mucho bucks, she returned with the MD degree, but never was able to secure a position in a US hospital.
