[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Actually, this is encouraging. I've been concerned that she's going to drive the US into bankruotcy - ala Greece - with her talk of all the free stuff she's going to hand out, like college educations. Shows she's just making empty promises to entice the Bernie supporters to the polls. (She's good with the lies.)[/quote]

Clinton never promised free college. That was one of the differences between her and Sanders.

Below is a section from her platform.

I think we can FREELY throw around the word, free, here.  Maybe you attended an Ivy?  I have no clue. But for those of us saving enough to get our kids through our local system, this will kill programs and lower quality.

Community colleges struggle enough b/c they've had to create remedial programs for high school "graduates" and many courses for ESL students.

How does she propose to support free tuition?  Apparently that last part of the quote "answers" that.  But in reality it will be us - the middle class - who are too poor to send our kids to an Ivy but too "rich" for our state university system. So colleges will be forced to raise tuition for us to pay for the others.  I say this as someone who graduated debt-free;my parents helped with undergrad and I paid for my master's degree b/c my employee kicked in.

Our own children will not be so lucky.

Hillary Clinton is the biggest bullshitter of our time. But people aren't smart enough to read and question her platform.

[quote]Every student should have the option to graduate from a public college or university in their state without taking on any student debt.[b] By 2021, families with income up to $125,000 will pay no tuition at in-state four-year public colleges and universities.[/b] And from the beginning, every student from a family [b]making $85,000 a year or less will be able to go to an in-state four-year public college or university without paying tuition.[/b]

[b]All community colleges will offer free tuition.[/b]

Everyone will do their part. States will have to step up and invest in higher education, and colleges and universities will be held accountable for the success of their students and for controlling tuition costs.[/quote]

And which schools did Chelsea attend?
