Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
It doesn’t matter how many times communism has failed, capitalism still has to actually work.

I expect America to be capitalist for my entire life and that’s okay. And yes, capitalism is one of the reasons I’m afforded the ability to say that.
You absolutely cannot make something “free” and avoid its immediate and almost total de-valuation. Full stop, it’s a cold-welded fact of society and human nature. You need to get it out of your head that a service provided by others should be free to anyone who wants to utilize it, be it education, healthcare, or anything else you’re currently dreaming of not having to pay for.
Someone, somewhere is funding that service. Free does not exist. -
I cannot express how fucking stupid you sound trying to explain that “well actually” things aren’t free.thechatch said:

It’s fucking McDonalds.
If you’re 30 and you work there, I don’t know what to tell you. -

Free college, no way, you got 12 years free... now either work for it or take a loan out from private lender.... get rid of subsidized loans and the cost will go way down.... -
If I like my once and future Dickensian dystopia, may I keep it?

Your last point is the irony of all of this. It’s very true. Looking back on everything, starting to back the loans may have been the single worst policy ever created. Lots of current issues that get traced back to this.Goduckies said:

How much of Joes own money went into campaigns? We do know Trump spent quite a bit of his own money. Are we to assume you're really a Trump guy then? -

I really want to hear the part-time barista level-set to the group on how we make the cost of goods and services disappear in healthcare and education. -
at 11yo I worked in a batting cage. I made something like $1-$1.25 per hour. When I got paid at the end of the night, I thought I was fucking rich.
No way in hell that was "slave labor".
