I have not (and will not) read all the posts, so perhaps this has been covered.
I see repeatedly in what posts I did read that High School is "free", so college should be "free" as well.
I am amazed that there are people who think that K-12 education is FREE!

I am reminded that it is NOT free every time I see what the State took out of my mortgage escrow account for "school taxes", and every time the school district wants to increase the mil levy so they get more money.
"FREE" college will be exactly the same! What will they tax to pay for it? Will it be another "sin tax" such as the tobacco tax? No, sorry, that won't work, just as the things that are already paid for with it are going broke. Smokers quit or die, so the tax revenue is drying up.
Maybe they can pattern it after the fuel taxes that are supposed to pay for roads and bridges. No, because that is drying up, too, as the fuel economy mandates and high prices mean that less fuel is being sold, so less tax money is coming in.
We elderly folks are paying for the K-12 schools YOUR kids are going to. We do not want to pay for YOUR kids to go to college as well!
So, are you against tax funded high schools or not? Is it a common theme that most of the people who are against it dont have children or grandchildren?
America has 301.3 million million people. How many illegals will Hillary make citizens? And how much money will this transition cost the US government?
Can you please provide a source verifying this. And how much will it cost?
How much money do these things cost the US government?
And if Trump gets elected who's dancing with the money in their hands?
You need a dose of reality Chad. First of all, the "Government" has no money. It gets its money from "Citizens" that pay taxes. Why don't you ask "How much is it going to cost all of us, not the "Government. That's what's wrong with some of you folks. You think we are living in a Communist Society, where you can dip your hands in my pockets at a whim. It doesn't work that way.
People with common sense don't need to be "spoon fed" figures and sources, to know that the Illegal Aliens are costing the People a lot of money, and if it was only hundreds, instead of Millions and Millions, it would still be too much to spend on Criminals that should not be here in the first place. When all these Middle East Imports come here, are you under the assumption that they are bringing "Money" with them, when they don't even have papers to prove who they are or where they are from? How much do you think it costs us to finance a family to a home, clothes, food, an all the other extras that we all have to work for. If my tax dollars are going for this, its my right to object, and demand it goes to Americans here, that need it, not people that made a shambles out of their own Country and now are doing the same to places that take them in.
And who is "Dancing" with the money in their hands now? Get a grip. People like Hillary. and Bill, and they want to make sure they can keep on dancing with it. Why do you think big Banks are supporting her, and why she is getting Donations for her Foundation? Because folks think she is cute? Your still on the rails of the Liberal RR Track, and that is what they like. If you get Hillary, you will deserve her. Doesn't affect me either way. I am good for the haul, and will sit back and watch.
That's a lie. Higher education is not free, unless you get a Scholarship, and then it still costs money. Why not try telling the truth. If what you say is true, thei thread would not be here, would it.
I don't have high hopes that you will understand the point.
I understand your point precisely. You want something for nothing. No degree needed to understand that. However, your not alone. There are thousands just like you, that think Government picks their money off of trees, and not from the Taxpayers pockets. I get it. An "investment" for me is buying a New Suburban, not buying you or anyone else free time in a University. That's your responsibility. If you don't want to work for it, and are able, I could not care less. Go live in a cardboard box, and eat dog food. .

I support "free" education for CHILDREN but I don't want to pay a dime to pay for any ADULT.
Lets just make sure we tax these big corporation and their recorded profits. Time for them to pay up!
Another idiotic response.
Guess where most of those corporate profits go.
To the tens of millions of American workers and retirees who have pension/retirement account investments. $27 trillion worth. Teachers, firemen, every other public employee, workers with 401Ks, IRAs, etc... ALL benefit from the corporate profits that make the value of their retirement funds grow.

They don't pay their own Taxes. WE pay them. They are charged Tax, and they hand the bill to us by tacking it on their products.
