Thanks for the class war comic.

Actually, in the United States Paula would qualify for a Pell Grant paying for her college.

Both my parents worked and my father had two jobs for years when raising their kids. Because they worked no Pell Grant. So I worked hard in school, competed and received a scholarship for college. That paid for tuition. I worked while going to college to pay for the other expenses and paid my own bills.

Paula is no dummy. She can do the same thing.

This comic avoids another category. The parents who refuse to work. But they get Pell Grants too.

How much is Pell Grant today? How is the job market and debt situation?

It's a GRANT. So you get money for doing nothing at all. Not a loan it's "free" money.

"Guys like" me? I earned my way through college. Your knowledge is lacking on American economics and how parents are heavily involved in (or should be)in a child's education.

Commies want government to replace God and family. Without God and His Divine institution of a man joining with a woman in marriage and then having kids to raise, government gets to become God, church and family. THAT is the false gospel you are preaching here...That government should provide for Paula, and it is not her reliance on God, family and church to meet her needs.

But your comic does hit paydirt on the two false gods in our world. Baal and the Golden Bull have been around long before capitalism and communism. The rich guy in your comic is worshipping as Jeroboam did to the Golden Bull (wealth) and replacing God as the focus. Paula is being encouraged to follow Baal as did Jezebel did. Baal being the 'king' earthly government to provide for her needs.

Pell Grants Cover Smallest Portion Of College Costs In History As GOP Calls For Cuts

There's a reason for the above...The expansion of other grants, loan repayment plans and in university grants. In university grants to low income students is money the university pays out of pocket but recieves compensation from the state or federal government.

So the truly poor in this country can go to college on scholarships/grants and probably have to work as I did for books and lab supplies and living expenses.

The only students complaining about repaying student loans are rich LIBERALS. They want the government to repay their loans even though their LIBERAL parents are filthy rich living in the Pacific NW, DC, NY, CA etc.

So first you must understand the younger generation of Americans going to college now have multiple options to pay for college. But for some reason everyone forgets things in this world cost money including education. But no one wants to use THEIR cash to pay for things they need. They want government to pay for the things they NEED and spend their cash on things they WANT. There's a huge difference.

Now let's examine the REAL issue here. The true issue is not that people don't have enough money for college but that college is TOO EXPENSIVE. Why these 'compassionate' liberal university professors and administration require skyrocket salaries is amazing. Why don't the teachers, professors and university admin take a pay cut to help Paula in the comic to afford college?

Devastatingly TRUE!

Yup.

The Marxist Academe Machination -- who've been selling a false compassion and the mantra, "Fo' da children" for decades have been proven only to be the ONLY beneficiaries of their own self-serving hypocrisy, theft, and propaganda.

Be it Public School or the University level, the quality of "education" has devolved, standards have devolved, and the agenda, decidedly Marxist AND socially subversive.

So...WHERE DOES ALL THE TAX MONEY GO?? Ooops -- NOT to improve the quality of education for the young pods; Instead it's compensated Marxist-Capitalists' golden parachutes, bennies far beyond merit, and tools that perpetuate the decades-long agenda that sabotages free thinking, innovation, and the principles of logic.

Indeed.

Also, a business goes bankrupt, kaput, if they fail in their business plan. People get fired. With Universities, they hand out tenure even to professors who fail students.

Same in local public schools K-12th grade. The teachers unions protect even the teachers who are failing at their jobs.

Yep, tenure for incompetent, subversive teachers is criminal. Yet it's routine. NO one should be immune from firings and dismissals. But University, Public School goob drones and bureaucrats get special this mulligan and reward that no one in real life in 5000 years EVER had.

The bloated public sector and the pencil-pushing governmental leviathan is a giant parasite, murdering the private sector -- which is the shoulder on which the entire economy rests. They mess up, they are GONZO.
