A great question nobody is asking about Biden’s student loan giveaway plan - By Thomas Lifson
- "...Besides, higher education has devolved into a brainwashing arm of the hard left and has lost all claim to be a general public benefit.
- The education cartel has abused the public with tuition escalating at three times the rate of general inflation for about half a century now, financing useless, expensive, and counterproductive administrative bureaucracies that now equal or outnumber teaching faculty at many institutions.
- But David Catron at American Spectator today raises a terrific point that I have never heard mentioned before, one that should trouble even those who do not share my critique: why should college dropouts be rewarded for their failure to complete the degrees to which they aspired?
...Remarkably, the Biden administration and most Democrats see this as a selling point for the plan. The White House fact sheet puts it as follows: “Nearly one-third of borrowers have debt but no degree, according to an analysis by the Department of Education of a recent cohort of undergraduates.”

Happy Women’s History Month!
Whatever the heck that is or is supposed to mean.

"As we recently learned, most political conspiracy theories appear to be true.
But I observe a pattern in what types of untruths the Left and Right believe.
The Right's untruths tend to organically spring from true believers in their ranks.
- The Left's untruths are more likely to be deliberate hoaxes concocted by their political operators.
- Only the Left creates elaborate hoaxes to spring on their own members.
The Right is just sometimes wrong.
Squires: Professors pushing pregnant 'men,' single motherhood, and abortion on demand are destroying the black community - TheBlaze
Squires: Professors pushing pregnant 'men,' single motherhood, and abortion on demand are destroying the black community - TheBlaze:
The current crop of race-obsessed progressive professors lacks this type of wisdom and understanding. They connect skin color to sin nature and are too afraid to say anything critical about any black people publicly. They have become agents of intellectual destruction and moral compromise. What they fail to grasp is that people committed to obliterating the foundations of biological sex, dismantling the nuclear family, abolishing the police, destroying their offspring, and numbing the pain of the resulting chaos with narcotics will never truly be “free.”
For all their talk about slavery and subjugation, they prove that physical chains are not the only way to keep people in bondage.
