I mostly agree with them on this there are a couple factors why.

1) Republicans dont like educated people
2) They dont believe everyone is entitled to higher education (which I agree with)

"I understand why Barack Obama wants to send every kid to college, because of their indoctrination mills, absolutely," he said. "The indoctrination that is going on at the university level is a harm to our country.” - rick santorum


not everyone can deal drugs for a living. some people want modern jobs that require degrees in science, engineering and technology. you know, the jobs that give this country the edge it has enjoyed and is now losing?

why do republicans want to murder higher education?

same reason Democrats keep their base poor... because the poor and stupid are easily lead.


the fact that you had to ask the question really is telling as to where you fall in the spectrum.

States that have higher college graduation rates tend to vote Dem, states that are less educated tend to vote Republican.

Yeah but Cuttlery you've consistently proven how uneducated you are (remember a few months ago when you thought Idi Amin had just been killed)?

So you're basically an ignorant Democrat stereotype

We can compare degrees if you'd like, more than happy to have anyone verify mine.

Ignoring the guy who is apparently unaware of the fact that more educated states vote Dem here is an example

Top 15 states in college grads
CO 34.6% college grads. Voted Obama
MA 32.7% Voted Obama
MD 32.4 Voted Obama
VA 31.8 Voted Obama
CT 31.7 Voted Obama
MN 31.4 Voted Obama
NJ 30.1 Voted Obama
VT 29.1 Voted Obama
NY 28.6 Voted Obama
WA 28.7 Voted Obama
AK 28 Voted McCain
CA 27.6 Voted Obama
OR 27.4 Voted Obama


Care to guess where the bottom 15 voted?

You do this every time I make you look like a dumbass. You fall back to ignoring the facts and trying to bash me. Its rather cute. As I said before. If you care to compare education, more than happy to do so. Happy to have anyone verify mine against yours if you wish. You going to start following me around like a scorned 12 year old again for making you look dumb like last time?

This all started last time because he was going all Ron Paul crazy and wasnt even aware of Ron Pauls huge spending habits and I made him look dumb. He threw a temper tantrum and followed me from thread to thread acting like a 13 year old while ignoring easily verified facts.

Ignoring the facts? It's a fact that you don't know who Idi Amin is, and that you make elementary mistakes against the English language almost every time you post

So it's a Ron Paul supporter thing, just ignore the fact that they get owned and carry on pretending to be educated?

See like this, I made him look stupid because he didnt know more educated states tend to vote Dem and he's trying to deflect now because he looks stupid.

In his defense though we did find out he's just a kid from his previous tantrums so cut him some slack, he'll grow out of it when he gets a little more mature.

Remember how you were ignorant about dogs eating lactose, and then complained when your dog had massive bowel complications after you were feeding it ice cream?

You have zero ground to stand on when it comes to education.

Some dogs can have lactose, some cannot.

Again, if you want to compare education please lets do so, I have nothing to hide. Are you unwilling to do this? Why are you continually ignoring what this thread is actually about?

Ignorance comes from the latin word for nosco, meaning to know.

Ignorance literally means "not knowing," and you not knowing major political leaders in world history is a sad case of ignorance.

i have an anecdote. i went to a state school. in 5 years or so my tuition went from like 1800 a semester to ~3000 and i watched entire majors get obliterated. every subsequent semester there were more and more people standing around in the first weeks of class trying to crash.

in my last two years when all i had was science and biology classes left I don't think i chose a single class because I thought it might be interesting or fun because I didn't have the luxury. if i could simply get into 5 classes that would progress me towards graduation i considered myself lucky. i had it easy too, i had a lot of units that gave me priority in registering and no obligations besides school to try and schedule around.

now that i think about it, the only people i knew who were actually able to support themselves and go to school full-time were bartenders and waitresses.

Thing is that he is just acting dumb. I actually cant believe he still cant let this go from like a year ago. He got all uppity because I made him look stupid because he was all high and mighty about Paul but didnt actually know anything about Paul. He followed me from thread to thread for like 2 weeks like a puppy pretty much acting like this and ignoring pretty much anything that the thread was about and calling me dumb. I misspoke in some thread about Amin and he started going on and on about it even though I said admitted I made a opps.

Was seriously like a year ago and he still cant let it go. Like I said though he's just a kid and we all acted like idiots as kids so everyone needs to cut him some slack.

What in God's name are you talking about lol? You haven't done anything besides recycled the same 3 baseless ad hominems throughout this entire thread. You have zero evidence for your claims. You're living in imagination land.

Bringing his kid into this is a low blow. It's something a liberal would do.

Just let him go on Combat, I dont care. Like I said he's just a kid, I completely understand his behavior, we all went through acting like this at his age. Its not that big of a deal, he'll grow out of it.

We've been over this a million times before. Some people don't know have rudimentary mathematics or statistics instruction enough to distinguish between county and state. You think the Bronx sends more kids to college than the outlying, rich suburbs of NYC?

And those billionaire conservative CEOs, I suppose they just hopped out of high school into top paying positions? Typically hypocritical and contradictory.

There is, and always will be, an underlying, shame-driven emotional immaturity to people who devote their lives to adversarial, hostile put downs on this board. I could not devise a more accurate clinical model if I had unlimited resources and a cadre of scientists to observe.

For some reason, those same people all happen to be liberal. I thought for a while that it was all liberals, but really, it's just those that are on this board.

You will never meet nor read anyone with such horrifyingly low self-esteem as the liberals on this board. They constantly have to defend their education, their status in life and their very personality and whenever it's called into question, they become aggressive, hostile and obviously insecure. They resort to name calling, personal insults, trolling and stalking just for that inkling of confidence they get from bullying.

I don't know if there's a trend between liberalism in America and crippling emotional problems, but there certainly is one on this board. I never hated them, but do I pity them. A lot of people accuse me of being elitist, but honestly, I just want what's best for everyone, and I hope that some day those people will find the happiness they want and need so badly.

I can agree with what I bolded. Knowledge is power and the smarter people are, the more power they demand. Conservatives worship greed in the USA and the problem simply is that they don't want to share.

The best analogy I heard was that Republicans want a bigger piece of the pie, while Democrats are trying to make the pie bigger, that way everyone gets a bigger piece.

There is no doubt in my mind that the desire of conservatives for personal wealth over national wealth, they don't care where they make or they invest their money just that they want more, the invisible hand is nothing but greed and greed is what has put this country in this mess.

Republicans want to murder higher education because that enforces their plutocracy. In their mind everybody in the world should work for the owners of the plantation, and they are the owners. You have a very wealthy, educated elite who own the plantations, gain almost all of the wealth created by the plantations, and a slave worker underclass that they can buy, sell, barter, and discard to their whim.

Schools don't contribute campaign dollars either, so they might as well divert the funding to the oil companies who do.

College has already been simplified to the point where there are kids in our universities that have no business being there. Not everyone is cut out to be a college student. We still need carpenters, roofers, plumbers, ditch diggers, cashiers, etc....
Obama wanting everyone to have a college degree is just him trying to earn some political points with young people.

Obama wants everyone to have education, that doesn't necessarily mean a college degree, but trade schools and tech schools and colleges all together.

You may not have noticed, but many of the things you listed above are jobs you actually need skills for.
