[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1) You just can't afford all colleges in the US. So look at those you can afford. That should not be so shattering.

2) The evidence does not support what is taken for gospel on this site: that going to an Ivy school changes the trajectory of your child's entire future. A dramatic return has been shown for low income kids, but not kids who start out at at higher social strata.

It will be okay. Let it go.[/quote]

This attitude is why there are many resentful middle class families that are starting to move away from the democrats.  The focus is entirely on "poor" families with no regard to how middle income families are being impacted.  The republicans might focus more on the wealthy, but at least they aren't hypocrites.  I know people who are voting for Trump because they think his policies might benefit them while they know the Dems will do absolutely nothing to benefit them.  When Trump got elected, I was sick to my stomach.  Now, with all the socialist talk in the field of democrats, I see no one worth voting for.  [/quote]

Which of Trump's policies help the middle class????  I can't help it if your friends are so susceptible to class war prodding that they can't see straight, but all of the Dems proposals squarely help the middle class to varying degrees and few of Trumps do (and who do you think is going to pay for the ballooning deficit from that tax cut?)[/quote]

When people keep getting told that their concerns are insignificant so suck it up, they tend not to see straight.  You can't dismiss people's real concerns about being shut out of areas of the American dream that were attainable before without having significant backlash.  [/quote]

Yeah, I don't think the American dream is that private institutions can't raise prices.  But maybe take your piddly savings and join one of Trumps clubs.  I'm sure if you bend an ear the oligarchs will see it your way.[/quote]
