For profit schools and those who profit from them should really be eliminated. It's education!

Well, we can make the one exception for the Clintons who made 65.5 million dollars from for profit education . . . https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/inside-bill-clintons-nearly-18-million-job-as-honorary-chancellor-of-a-for-profit-college/2016/09/05/8496db42-655b-11e6-be4e-23fc4d4d12b4_story.html?utm_term=.e3a9d347529d

This coupled with his tax plan which the filthy rich will be the biggest beneficiaries of is just head shaking.


"President-elect Donald Trump, who ran a populist campaign, so far is assembling one of the wealthiest administration teams in recent memory.

In the past few weeks, Mr. Trump has appointed three fellow billionaires to top administration positions, and at least two other millionaires to his cabinet.
.......
He accused hedge-fund managers of “getting away with murder” by taking advantage of tax-code loopholes, and railed against the “financial elite” who donate to politicians for bolstering a rigged system that left “millions of our workers with nothing but poverty and heartache.”"

And then he hired those people who will probably push policies which will make them even richer.

Hey OP, you may not have noticed, but comrade Sanders did not even win the Dem primaries.

Trump won because he wasn't owned by wealthy donors, thanks to his own wealth. Same with those other guys. What matters is what they actually DO.

If you can't wait and see...

Why not move to Cuba, while the party lasts there?

I'm a survivor of parochial schools and I don't want my tax dollars going to support them.

I want world peace.

(You can sympathize with Christians who don't want their tax money to pay for abortions, can't you? :wink

And since no tax payer dollars go to fund abortions, no tax payer dollars should go to fund religious schools.

You meant when? Okay

Charter and parochial are not always the same. I for one welcome the transfer. The public school system in my state is an astounding failure. Charters (many of which are secular) are often the only option middle- and low-middle class parents have to give their children a chance at half-way decent education.

Would you agree that tax-payer dollars should not go to fund religious schools?

Yes. But as I said, the majority of charters in my area are secular. They grew out of necessity to provide an viable alternative for parents who want to educate their children but can't afford privates.

I don't know what this is supposed to mean. The post is in regards to how Trump railed against big money influencing government and how they screwed the little guys, then he went ahead and hired those same types of people to run the government.

Kind of like how he railed against Ford and Apple for manufacturing their products overseas, but he does the same thing. What's that called... oh right, hypocrisy.

OMG, you moron. People rejected Hillary for being beholden to Wall Street and her "secret" speeches to the big banks. Now guess who is running the nation?
