In the 21st century, twelve years of school isn’t enough. That’s why under the Biden-Harris plan, community college will be free — and public colleges and universities will be tuition-free for families earning less than $125,000 a year.

Wow wow wow.
I spent a large part of my youth in Europe. At the time many countries over there had "free" higher education.
I never understood why we couldn't do it here.
Why stop at 12th grade? Education should always be encouraged.
Maybe being free isn't the answer but what we are doing now isn't working either!

I still want reparations.
Maybe I'll go loot somewhere in 2022 in a typical liberal major city.
Once they have replaced the cops with social workers.
That's what reparations means now, right?

It won’t be “free.” It will be my hard-earned tax dollars, and yours, if you work, which pays for the “free” community college.

I don't have a problem with "free" education,it's the
crud they force on you I have a problem with.

Wouldn’t a more educated society benefit everyone?

Depends on what people are studying...
My CC had a 2 semester long course on J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings literature.
Yeah I won't want to pay taxes for load of crap pretend edu daycare.
I agree with that. I also think we need to push in the non academic areas, like mechanics, plumbers, electricians, and welders, etc. It doesn’t all have to be doctors and lawyers.
I have often thought we have failed our youth. That age between 18-24 is such an important time. It’s also a time when a lot of kids get in trouble. Giving this age group more options is going in the right direction.
