we want to make sure that we’re not robbing Peter to pay Paul.”

In California they rob Fred to pay Kayeesha and Raul.

Tax the rich. That’s their mantra. The rich will pay for it; except liberal actors and MSMLSD TV personalities.

What’s the problem? It’s FREE, nobody has to pay for it!

If the teachers truely cared about their students, they would work for free.

Full-time....community college

IIRC about 1/2 of community college students are part-time. People getting certifications for plumbing, welding, etc

Only a couple hundred bucks per semester in the 70’s.

The increase is NOT “inflation”, its THEFT.

Right on!

And in the ‘60s community college was free in California. U of C was $90/semester—not $90/semester hour.

I understood that all their leftist professors and instructors were going to donate their time and work for free.

No??

Ya, they worked for free in the 70’s.....

Actually, most got phony PhD’s and were way OVERPAID.

This one guy wouldn’t have received his AA without my help, went on to get his PhD, with the help of other phonies at the CC.

Exactly.

Oh and while you’re at it, impose a special tax on hollyweird; surely the self-righteous leftists there would not mind paying their “fair share”.

I wonder what the campus crime rates (sexual assault numbers) are these days, what with illegals and assorted third-world diversifiers slithering around openly, barely masquerading as students.

Did they simply install “Predator-free Zone” signs and call it a day, or what?

How will it pay? By making the rich pay their “fair share”, of course! < /wishfully sarc >
