   Everybody knows the best things in life are free. So might as   
   well include education.

   Get real. We repay the cost of tuition many times over through taxes.   
   It really is a good deal for states to provide free tuiion. Employers   
   get the benefit of having a qualified workforce, and the state gets   
   more revenue as more people are gainfully employed.   
      
   >Stuff like that should be included in a national version of "government   
   > subsidized college education."   
      
   Bernie Sanders wants to go national. But states can do so now,   
   as some already are. Maybe Bernie should set his sights on running   
   for governor of Vermont, rather than president. Just think of the   
   many wonders he could do, educating all those Vermonters with his   
   own special program.   
      
   >LL>a living by flipping hamburgers at some fast food joint?   
   >   
   >I'm confident that some people DO earn a living flipping burgers.   
      
   Part time hours at minimum wage is not liveable. Even full time   
   at minimum wage is not liveable.   
      
   >Their payroll tax shouldn't be funding people who want to be journalists.   
      
   Would you rather have Chris Cuomo as governor rather than a tv host?   
      
   >I guess it would be more justified if their payroll tax funded police   
   > academy students, or medical school students;   
      
   Students should be free to pursue the field of their choice.   
      
   >let the burger flippers get some value out of their payroll tax.   
      
   Employers have an obligation to pay the payroll tax, as rollbacks   
   would weaken social security and medicare. Nobody should be forced   
   to work until they drop.   
      
   >Let's not work ourselves to death just so Hunter Biden can become a marine   
   > biologist.   
      
   Hunter is a lawyer, and I am sure he would make a fine marine   
   biologist if he were to get the proper education and training.   
   He might even be able to get a position at LUMCON, a research   
   facility on the coast of Louisiana.
