As I've noted over and over, a lot of it wasn't theirs to start with.

Cavuto was explaining to her that the 1% were already being taxed at a high rate but she just wants more and more until all of the things she thinks she and her generation think they are "entitled" to, become more affordable (or free!)
Cavuto is right... push it too far and rich people will just leave and live somewhere else.
Q.E. 1 Q.E. 2 Q.E. 3 and soon negative interest rates. When is more and more enough?

Where are they?
About $2 trillion of it is in GSE MBS bought and owned by the Federal Reserve. Additional national debt had to be created so the Federal Reserve could buy those. Would have been better if investors bought those. Wouldn't have added $2 trillion to the national debt.

You will always have those who believe that everyone else is obligated to provide for them.

What is particularly tragic about this, given how painfully ignorant her representation of her position on this was, is that she attends a school where the 2015-2016 annual tuition & fees is $45,530. Anyone think she's getting her money's worth for that cost?

Northeastern University, Boston. If that's the kind of students they turn out... Wow. Just... wow!

Neil Cavuto's member went from a 1/2 inch to 3/4 of an inch based off this interview.

It was hella productive.

...or to put it another way.. if her education were free, like she wants, does anyone think whomever collectively pays for it would be getting their money's worth by her contributions to society in the future?

Cavuto did not make her look stupid! She did that completely on her own. If anything he was too kind and differential to her.

We are doomed if this is what our colleges have been churning out for all these years!
