The problem is we can already afford to do it, so why have the people at the top not taken action and the answer is they are corrupt, and they don’t serve the general Populace of the United States.
No sir. Education shouldn’t be a great business, nor do some USA students want to take someone else’s money. They simply want for government to stop lavishly spending the taxpayer dollars, including the taxes already paid by the rich and poor, in stupid multibillion wars, policing the world, controlling other governments and SERVE Americans primary needs FIRST!

Imagine Charlie Kirk names 4 countries that score far better than America on most statistics lmao. The fact people like you keep defending this clown is why America will never be great.
People are only upset and entitled over the cost of schooling because it's largely the government's past actions that contributed to the reasons as to why college is unaffordable. Then society demands that students have to get a degree if they don't want to be an HVAC or construction worker, and whether you can obtain a college education or not helps contribute to class divides. You want educated people to make decisions and lead society, but if college is unaffordable, then it's only the rich who have the knowledge.
I would wager we could already afford to make college, and healthcare near free, at least affordable if the budget wasn’t managed by morons. 6.4 trillion with a T. $6,400,000,000,000.00😂. Looks even more ridiculous without the commas $6400000000000.00
That exclamation point seems that you think you're making a big announcement, like you're the only person who thinks that. I completely agree with that statement, I'm bothered by the use of punctuation though.
Governments plant seeds of trees we will never sit under the shade of. When the tax payer pays for a young person to be educated, the fruit of that investment is a better life for their children, and their children. Government investments in education are guaranteed returns.
@@yowheeler11 million job openings in blue collar work in the US. Critical jobs that keep the ship floating. We don't need more students with useless pieces of paper. Most job markets are saturated and wages are decreasing, people now have massive debt and they can't find work to pay it back. We NEED auto mechanics, plumbers, roofers, machine operators (my job), construction workers, etc. Obviously we need doctors and rocket scientists but let's get real, those degrees see about 25-30% of all graduates.
Sweden also has the highest population of billionaires per capita in the world. That’s even after the richest Nordic people who leave the country to avoid tax in Switzerland. IKEA, LEGO, Ericsson, Volvo, Pandora jewellery, H&M, Electrolux and more. Then consider all the Nordic countries combined only have a population of 27.36 million it’s quite impressive how much wealthy there is in the Nordic regions. Such a blind American view.
It is indeed. Scandinavian countries have created many successful brands and businesses, like IKEA, LEGO, Spotify, but probably the think that those are american businesses. And on top of that, they have high level of literacy, in Norway it is 100%, where in USA it is around 79%. Yeah, but I guess tax money is too "socialist" to be used on free education and healthcare, even if it would decrease the gap between the richest and the poorest, increase overall quality of life and decrease criminality
@@kacpi60 Yea, the US is super anti socialist so isn’t really possible there and that is their choice. But I do believe there needs to be more capitalist competition to bring the price down of education. Maybe with more online and alternative formats. There is a clear monopoly/price fixing issue with universities.
To be fair, he asked if he can name them, not do they exist. Not makinf an excuse for the dude, there's plenty of times I've seen Charlie be incorrect.

They're rich because they worked for it. Unlike the kid in the video, who's too busy crying about how other people should take care of him.
@@RottenTomatoRejects Yes you have to have drive and want. The USA education system has gone down hill significantly over the last 25 years. The No Child Left Behind act began to lower standards by allowing pupils to fail tests and still move up to the next year. Literacy rates have gone down in the USA, 54% of adult can’t read above a 6th grade level. The whole USA education system is failing and need a significant overhaul to compare to other countries.
Turn out like what? You know literally nothing about this person. What are you even talking about? Are you seriously saying because he has the opinion that there should be public education beyond 12th grade he's a bad person? What's wrong with you? You're such a disgusting hateful person, when did that become socially acceptable? 2016?
I'm an American white woman, 71 years old. As I remember it - Grades 1 through 12 classes are "free" to all students. I say "free" as local property in quotes as local property taxes are typically set apart to build schools, hire teachers, approve curriculum and teach students. No tuition is paid by students. There are federal and state programs to help students if they don't have a packed lunch or lunch money, to make sure they are fed. The school curriculum that I went through gave me a sufficient background that I was able to attend University of Florida where I graduated with honors in 1976 with a Bachelor of Design from the College of Architecture where I majored in Interior Design. I worked part to full time throughout my University schooling, with help from my parents (even though I got married part way through). Who taught this kid that education was free and you didn't have to do anything to get it? Levels 1-12 are offered freely to students. But not everyone needs university level training to do the work that they want to do. Many trades and professions can be trained on the job. So either this young man is entitled or he is narcissist in thinking he must be given more than the rest of the Americans. Or has everything changed since then?
It to mention Sweden has double the amount of billionaires per capita than america. I’m glad someone else noticed his atrocious argument with countries that have 17 people living there. Equinor is now the name of Statoil btw

I want to invest in our society. People with Bachelor’s make 20gs more a year on average than a high school graduate. More money =more taxes and less uses of long-term welfare. The taxes for education are an investment that betters society. Therefore Logically its better to have for society. If you only care about yourself obviously you might not care about others in society, but eventually society will effect you whether its through crime, more taxes used for welfare, or having to suffer from an abundance of uneducated people. Education is one of the most important parts of a society. If you know how much education benefits society and, therefore, you and you still dont want to be taxed for it, there is nothing can say other than that's part of a consequence of being in a society. Specifically a democracy. Although we are a republic, the same thing applies. Members of a society make laws and legislation to benefit a society. That's why we tax people for social security, welfare, military defense budget, infrastructure, etc. I might not use any of the previously mentioned, but I am still taxed for them regardless. Just because someone might not ever need social security, welfare, military protection, or road infrastructure because they work at home and live in the woods does not mean they can refuse to be in society. The reason why they can't refuse to be taxed is because society forces individuals to invest in society, which helps society. It is for the greater good. It also indirectly helps individuals who do not directly use the previously mentioned programs. It could result in said person being less likely to be affected by crime, less likely to be taxed for other social programs, having an easier time getting a doctor, etc. It's a chain reaction. There are plenty of indirect positive consequences for investing in society through education. If you're against just educational grants but not all the other previously mentioned taxes, you are a hypocrite. Dont be a hypocrite and only be okay with taxes that directly benefit you. If you're against all taxes, then go live in the woods and do not use any of the services or products that society creates through taxes. Also, entitlements are rights. If im taxed, im entitled to reasonable compensation. If society abolished all taxes I will not expect anything as I would not be giving things. Until taxes are abolished I will expect fair compensation. Right now we are not being fairly compensated considering social security will run out by 2033 and we have a massive military budget for irrelevant foreign affairs.
@F_a_V1 taking money from people by force and giving it to people who didn't earn it is theft. Also Marxism. Redistribution of wealth. Go earn your own shares. It's harder now, yes, but you are capable. Keep your hands out of my pockets, I didn't go to college, I work as a heavy machine operator and developed SKILLS to earn my keep. It's possible. Go do it yourself.
There is nothing in this clip that indicates he works or pays taxes. Just that he is irresponsible and expects others to pay his bills. He chose to go to college he should pay for it. If you really think a big percentage of people coming out of college are educated you are delusional.
It's pretty easy to think this way post 2020 upon the biggest transfer of money from us to the 1%. Inflation is through the roof. Minimum wage hasn't increased in 15 years. It's absolutely disgusting that the American dream is dead and you seem to be defending the fact that we the people need to continue pulling ourselves up by our bootstraps, or as Charlie puts it, "invest in yourself".
Why can’t there ever be a balance struck in these sorts of arguments. I think there should be more grants and incentives for students who come from low income families to get an education. I received grants and scholarships to go to school but it was because of merit and because my household income was very low. If we start handing out free education to anyone and everyone, do people not see how that could end badly? Higher taxes, less rigorous education, more saturation, less incentives to study hard and earn your way
@DrRichardDStiff No, the money was transferred from hard working Americans to the government, then to illegal aliens, big pharma and the military industrial complex via the deficit and fed quantitative easing which leads to inflation and wage stagnation. I am not in the 1%, but close, and I have been working 50-60 hours a week for over 40 years nonstop to get what I have, and I plan on keeping it.
@@DrRichardDStiffTo put it differently, in 2023, over 36% of every $1 of GDP was spent by governments in the US. The theft from working people, by force, is unprecedented.
@@jerrygudknecht6066 That's incorrect. In spite of alleged 'supply chain problems' and extreme increases of prices to 'alleviate the costs', companies still posted record profits in 2020 and beyond.

Bless his heart, the young man believes in the right to an education but not the responsibility of investing in his future. It seems that Charlie gave him something to think about.
We do that in Norway. It works like a fucking charm. You wanna know why? Because it means the chances that students become a highly productive member of society, able to *repay* their country both in productivity and development, are greatly increased. You've been fooled into thinking that your lives should be nothing but debt, and that tuition fees should follow you for the rest of your sorry lives...
@@fancygierwok5461 Yeah, and look at how Poland has been improving recently! Turns out, if you pool your resources, and spread them out more evenly, while still leaving opportunities for those that want to go above and beyond, it all comes back around. If you lock education and opportunities away to the few that can afford it privately, that limits the productivity of your country massively. That's only good for those that are already rich, because they have an easy pool of dirt cheap labor, but it limits production to low-quality goods - which limits profit potential across the board, and causes stagnation. Which seems to be exactly what they want in The US - an uneducated, debt-ridden, powerless populace, so the big corps have cheap labor, and little chance of competition arising.
No it doesn't. He namedrops a bunch of countries with high taxes, claiming they have no billionaires or billion dollar companies, which is just factually wrong.

This is crazy as a European to hear. We do things very differently. ‘Invest in yourself?’ So you don’t think educating children should be part of the taxpayer system? We educate everyone because it benefits everyone. The more educated a population, the more benefits for everyone.

Universal free public college costs only $100 billion annually. The current student debt is 2.1 trillion and growing. We can end future student debt this way. Qualify the scholarship and make them earn it. In Georgia we have it to where if one has a 3.0 (core curriculum ONLY) the state takes care of 81% of their tuition … It invests in itself. It pays off heavily. It only costs Georgia 1.4 billion annually…. GROW UP!!!! Why would a conservative grifter parrot opinions to you? It’s in his own best interest to do so. The reality is that this is the easiest time and place to exist and life doesn’t have to be as hard as it’s been made. With a 3.0 a student should be able to earn a heavily subsidized ride to a public university in their state… maybe elsewhere too in the states.

It is not so much about greed, it is more with the idea of "Trickle-Down economics", it does not work... People who have more money, doesn´t necesarily use more money... So giving more money in taxes has a much better circulation and thus can help more people in need of them.

I told her that wasn't happening, and I'd never prioritize caring for someone else's child instead of my own. That's exactly what this young man is doing, demanding that those less than 50% of the population paying taxes should have to pay for stuff out of their own pockets for themselves and their families, while paying for him too.

It just makes me cringe on what these professors are teaching these entilted brats in colleges. I was raised, if you want something you worked for it! The world or the American people don't owe you NOTHING!
That is exactly how it would work though, we need an educated population, especially with all of the technological advancements that are happening, I think a big issue is the actual cost of the education, I don't really understand how the schools justify the price tag. Especially when you consider that you can learn almost anything for free online but that education doesn't come with the degree. Obviously a trade is different it requires actual material to learn with and somehow a trade school ends up being cheaper. Like how is it cheaper to teach someone to weld than it is to teach someone accounting, They need welding machines, equipment, materials and a facility that's outfitted for all that. Accounting is taught out of a book so how is it more expensive to become an accountant than a welder? It just doesn't make sense.
So glad you do what you do Charlie. Educate these clowns and teach them, nothing is just handed in this world, but it is earned. It is time these people grow up and start working hard for what they want, They just might appreciate something in life.
@JonTonyJim Which tells us you're to ignorant to understand that in reality it means that the working class are the ones ending up paying. How silly are you? If the tax burden foe the rich increases, it's only going to result in one of two things: - They raise the prices = the working class end up paying more for the product AND most likely also a higher tax. OR - They are going to move to a better country that respect common sense more, so USA is going to loose their tax and therefore have to raise the tax foe the working class. In both cases, the working class would end up paying for his entitlement. Getting a free education is no human right, especially since majority of collage students waste their time with useless degrees and now they want to spend my business money on their delusional entitlement, instead of skipping college and actually choose to become productive members of society.
@@gabrielg2856 very over-simplistic take. Taxation is not just about efficiency. The poor may pay a little more for stuff, but if that is outweighed by stronger public services then it will be worth it for them.
@@JonTonyJim You obviously haven't thought this through. Of course the wealthy will also pay, because everyone who pays taxes pays taxes. When the poor and the rich pay taxes the money they've paid to the IRS and other agencies are not segregated by class of the payer. So if the government pays tuition, not only will some of the money come from the poor and working class, it effectively functions as a distribution of wealth from the poor and working class to the laptop class.
@@grennhald you know how progressive taxation works? Each rich will pay far more than each poor person. If wealth was distributed more evenly, the poorest in society would have access to proper education so that uni could be available to everyone, and there would be no “laptop class”.

People are only upset and entitled over the cost of schooling because it's largely the government's past actions that contributed to the reasons as to why college is unaffordable. Then society demands that students have to get a degree if they don't want to be an HVAC or construction worker, and whether you can obtain a college education or not helps contribute to class divides. You want educated people to make decisions and lead society, but if college is unaffordable, then it's only the rich who have the knowledge.

Sweden also has the highest population of billionaires per capita in the world. That’s even after the richest Nordic people who leave the country to avoid tax in Switzerland.
IKEA, LEGO, Ericsson, Volvo, Pandora jewellery, H&M, Electrolux and more. Then consider all the Nordic countries combined only have a population of 27.36 million it’s quite impressive how much wealthy there is in the Nordic regions. Such a blind American view.
It is indeed. Scandinavian countries have created many successful brands and businesses, like IKEA, LEGO, Spotify, but probably the think that those are american businesses. And on top of that, they have high level of literacy, in Norway it is 100%, where in USA it is around 79%.
Yeah, but I guess tax money is too "socialist" to be used on free education and healthcare, even if it would decrease the gap between the richest and the poorest, increase overall quality of life and decrease criminality
@@kacpi60 Yea, the US is super anti socialist so isn’t really possible there and that is their choice.

1st generation American. This is what we're allowing into our country.
I'm an American white woman, 71 years old. As I remember it - Grades 1 through 12 classes are "free" to all students. I say "free" as local property in quotes as local property taxes are typically set apart to build schools, hire teachers, approve curriculum and teach students. No tuition is paid by students. There are federal and state programs to help students if they don't have a packed lunch or lunch money, to make sure they are fed. The school curriculum that I went through gave me a sufficient background that I was able to attend University of Florida where I graduated with honors in 1976 with a Bachelor of Design from the College of Architecture where I majored in Interior Design. I worked part to full time throughout my University schooling, with help from my parents (even though I got married part way through). Who taught this kid that education was free and you didn't have to do anything to get it? Levels 1-12 are offered freely to students. But not everyone needs university level training to do the work that they want to do. Many trades and professions can be trained on the job. So either this young man is entitled or he is narcissist in thinking he must be given more than the rest of the Americans. Or has everything changed since then?
Exactly
Norway: Statoil, Opera Software, Helly Hansen. Sweden: Ikea, Spotify, Electrolux, Volvo. Finland: Nokia. Denmark: Carlsberg, Danfoss.

Entitlement destroys character, responsibility builds character.
I want to invest in our society. People with Bachelor’s make 20gs more a year on average than a high school graduate. More money =more taxes and less uses of long-term welfare. The taxes for education are an investment that betters society. Therefore Logically its better to have for society.
If you only care about yourself obviously you might not care about others in society, but eventually society will effect you whether its through crime, more taxes used for welfare, or having to suffer from an abundance of uneducated people. Education is one of the most important parts of a society. If you know how much education benefits society and, therefore, you and you still dont want to be taxed for it, there is nothing can say other than that's part of a consequence of being in a society. Specifically a democracy. Although we are a republic, the same thing applies.
Members of a society make laws and legislation to benefit a society. That's why we tax people for social security, welfare, military defense budget, infrastructure, etc. I might not use any of the previously mentioned, but I am still taxed for them regardless. Just because someone might not ever need social security, welfare, military protection, or road infrastructure because they work at home and live in the woods does not mean they can refuse to be in society. The reason why they can't refuse to be taxed is because society forces individuals to invest in society, which helps society. It is for the greater good. It also indirectly helps individuals who do not directly use the previously mentioned programs. It could result in said person being less likely to be affected by crime, less likely to be taxed for other social programs, having an easier time getting a doctor, etc. It's a chain reaction. There are plenty of indirect positive consequences for investing in society through education. If you're against just educational grants but not all the other previously mentioned taxes, you are a hypocrite. Dont be a hypocrite and only be okay with taxes that directly benefit you. If you're against all taxes, then go live in the woods and do not use any of the services or products that society creates through taxes.
Also, entitlements are rights. If im taxed, im entitled to reasonable compensation. If society abolished all taxes I will not expect anything as I would not be giving things. Until taxes are abolished I will expect fair compensation. Right now we are not being fairly compensated considering social security will run out by 2033 and we have a massive military budget for irrelevant foreign affairs.
@F_a_V1 taking money from people by force and giving it to people who didn't earn it is theft. Also Marxism. Redistribution of wealth. Go earn your own shares. It's harder now, yes, but you are capable. Keep your hands out of my pockets, I didn't go to college, I work as a heavy machine operator and developed SKILLS to earn my keep. It's possible. Go do it yourself.
Very well said.
He's being responsible by going to college. He also pays taxes. His taxes would be used to pay his education, not yours.
There is nothing in this clip that indicates he works or pays taxes. Just that he is irresponsible and expects others to pay his bills. He chose to go to college he should pay for it. If you really think a big percentage of people coming out of college are educated you are delusional.
The vast majority of taxes come from poor or middle class small business families
He wants the taxpayers to pay. And then he acts like it will be the "rich" who foot his bill.
These kids did not come up with this on their own. They were taught.
It's pretty easy to think this way post 2020 upon the biggest transfer of money from us to the 1%. Inflation is through the roof. Minimum wage hasn't increased in 15 years. It's absolutely disgusting that the American dream is dead and you seem to be defending the fact that we the people need to continue pulling ourselves up by our bootstraps, or as Charlie puts it, "invest in yourself".
Why can’t there ever be a balance struck in these sorts of arguments. I think there should be more grants and incentives for students who come from low income families to get an education. I received grants and scholarships to go to school but it was because of merit and because my household income was very low. If we start handing out free education to anyone and everyone, do people not see how that could end badly? Higher taxes, less rigorous education, more saturation, less incentives to study hard and earn your way
@DrRichardDStiff No, the money was transferred from hard working Americans to the government, then to illegal aliens, big pharma and the military industrial complex via the deficit and fed quantitative easing which leads to inflation and wage stagnation. I am not in the 1%, but close, and I have been working 50-60 hours a week for over 40 years nonstop to get what I have, and I plan on keeping it.

That's only good for those that are already rich, because they have an easy pool of dirt cheap labor, but it limits production to low-quality goods - which limits profit potential across the board, and causes stagnation.

Tax payers do pay for your school K-12. After that you’re an adult.
Well said.
YES!
Tax payers also pay for Israel billions or Ukraine that goes over everybody's head. But that's okay? The distribution how to spend tax payers dollars is the problem.
@@tiborzkarate1 No one said it was “ok” in this thread bud. Taxes shouldn’t pay for anyone’s college or any other countries problems. If you want to donate your money that’s your choice, but my tax dollars should only cover infrastructure, security, public officials, and certain social welfare programs 🤷♂️
@@tiborzkarate1 Providing for the defense of Foreign States is not OK, either.
Why should we pay for his schooling? Thank you for telling him no that’s how how sad this country has become they’ve turned our younger generation into entitled people you need to work for what you have not just get it handed to you
If taxes work like that where is my cyber truck, million dollar home and full armory?
How he blatantly expects taxpayers to give him money makes me sick
No he expects everyone to get that same opportunity. Which people do.
You "at least should" have an interest in society being widely educated.
An educated society is a healthy society.
It's not "me me me" that's just how Charlie is portraying him. He will become a taxpayer, and want the next generation to also be educated. Shock and horror I know.
@@BaxstabberzZthis is an excellent correction and its sad seeing the comments miss this lol
Gov. Should pay for school, in Eu we have free scholing, investment in country, smart move.
Only pay for stem. Anything outside of that isn’t helpful to society. None of these bull shit degrees your Starbucks barista has.
@@Gooddeed-n2cAnd how's that working for ya? Europe has a bigger population than the US but a weaker economy. Doesn't make much sense if y'all have more smart people. Seems like those investments aren't actually paying off.

What about people who never had to work but inherited lots of millions?
@@samohta7090still not yours
@@Justkeepdriving196 I think that's worth being discussed in society.
But we don't have to figure it out on YT.
@@samohta7090 if I had millions my kids would be my priority. If they inherent money from me they deserve it because I earned it and that's where I want my hard earned money to go. Your welcome to move to a socialist country if that's what you want but socialism still has people in power and people living in poverty. If there was a way to have every person equally contribute then it would be possible to divide wealth but I don't want to work so some lazy person doesn't have to. The entitlement is ridiculous. I'm not rich but if I was I would want to decide who gets a piece not be forced to contribute to deadbeats like the kid in this video.
This kid is the prime example of believing Biden was going to only tax the rich and not the poor. Even though he increased taxes for all classes lmao.
The sad thing is this student doesn't have a clue on what you just explained to him.
Back during the run up to the PPACA I had some woman complaining about how she couldn't afford medical care, even though her daughter had had cancer, been treated and was now in remission/cured and she wasn't out a penny. I asked her if she was saying that my premiums and deductibles should double or worse, to the point where I wouldn't be able to afford care for my child, just so she could get the free care she already was for her kid, and she did have the honesty to say "yes".
I told her that wasn't happening, and I'd never prioritize caring for someone else's child instead of my own.
That's exactly what this young man is doing, demanding that those less than 50% of the population paying taxes should have to pay for stuff out of their own pockets for themselves and their families, while paying for him too. Gee, maybe we should get to claim him as a deduction instead of his parents or himself, if he wants us to support him.
I get angry about paying for other people to have solar when I can't afford it myself.
He's not smart enough for college!
He is if he's trying to get a degree in gender studies.
😂😂😂😂😂
Someone should explain to him that taxes are supposed to protect the country's people and our way of life and not to pay for lazy ass morons that think they deserve to be supported by the hard working people .
He's not smart enough to be in grade school.

Americans think these are American brand but those are brands from Scandinavia so in this point Charlie is wrong cuz everybody knows these brands
Why should taxpayers pay for his education to a College that overcharges and uses him for the money? Not my responsibility to pay for his education or anyone else's.
Here's the funny part, those Scandinavian countries pay for your full university and 100% Healthcare. And why does someone who breaks their body everyday at work pay all the taxes in a country and not someone who took a risk?!?! There's needs to be at least a subtle amount more payed by people who have more money then they can spend in their life
Why do I have to pay for you kid? I put myself through college. I worked full time and all summers and got it done. And I’m a better person for it… it’s okay to struggle a little. I builds your character.
It would def help if student loan debt wasn't so prominent and they gave you like 10 years before it starts to build up.
Cry cry cry,this boy needs a good spanking
@@F_a_V1 valid point.
Because my bright murican when your kids grow up you will not pay for their college ..... Works for EU .

It just makes me cringe on what these professors are teaching these entilted brats in colleges. I was raised, if you want something you worked for it! The world or the American people don't owe you NOTHING!
He doesn’t even make the argument that they are investing in him and that he will later pay taxes and contribute?! 😂 he just wants hand outs forever!!
That is exactly how it would work though, we need an educated population, especially with all of the technological advancements that are happening, I think a big issue is the actual cost of the education, I don't really understand how the schools justify the price tag. Especially when you consider that you can learn almost anything for free online but that education doesn't come with the degree. Obviously a trade is different it requires actual material to learn with and somehow a trade school ends up being cheaper. Like how is it cheaper to teach someone to weld than it is to teach someone accounting, They need welding machines, equipment, materials and a facility that's outfitted for all that. Accounting is taught out of a book so how is it more expensive to become an accountant than a welder? It just doesn't make sense.
You can tell he’s trying to remember what his professor told him to say.
Imagine living in a country that gives tax breaks to profitable companies.
Yep, I agree to invest in ourselves. That I taught my brother this and now we are thriving as young entrepreneurs. Cheers and God bless
Back in the day, unless we got a scholarship, we paid for our own college schooling. Now you want Us to pay for you... 😡

@@billmorison6073 I think you’re supporting my argument bill. Thank you!
A scholarship means taxpayers funded education, because that's how public universities make money.
I sold my house to pay for my daughter’s tuition. If you get free education, shouldn’t the government reimburse me a house?
How’s your daughter doing?
Did you think you were making a good argument here or were you intentionally trying to sound as stupid as this kid
So glad you do what you do Charlie. Educate these clowns and teach them, nothing is just handed in this world, but it is earned. It is time these people grow up and start working hard for what they want, They just might appreciate something in life.
I think the biggest problem is that our taxes are not being used how they need to be
I don't owe this kid ANYTHING!!! Pay your own way in life

He thinks poor people and the working class should fund his privilege...
No… he obviously doesn’t. He is very clearly telling about taxing the ultra-wealthy.
@JonTonyJim Which tells us you're to ignorant to understand that in reality it means that the working class are the ones ending up paying. How silly are you?
If the tax burden foe the rich increases, it's only going to result in one of two things:
- They raise the prices = the working class end up paying more for the product AND most likely also a higher tax.
OR
- They are going to move to a better country that respect common sense more, so USA is going to loose their tax and therefore have to raise the tax foe the working class.
In both cases, the working class would end up paying for his entitlement.
Getting a free education is no human right, especially since majority of collage students waste their time with useless degrees and now they want to spend my business money on their delusional entitlement, instead of skipping college and actually choose to become productive members of society.
@@gabrielg2856 very over-simplistic take. Taxation is not just about efficiency. The poor may pay a little more for stuff, but if that is outweighed by stronger public services then it will be worth it for them.
@@JonTonyJim You obviously haven't thought this through. Of course the wealthy will also pay, because everyone who pays taxes pays taxes. When the poor and the rich pay taxes the money they've paid to the IRS and other agencies are not segregated by class of the payer.
So if the government pays tuition, not only will some of the money come from the poor and working class, it effectively functions as a distribution of wealth from the poor and working class to the laptop class.
@@grennhald you know how progressive taxation works? Each rich will pay far more than each poor person. If wealth was distributed more evenly, the poorest in society would have access to proper education so that uni could be available to everyone, and there would be no “laptop class”.
It will primarily be money moving from advantage to disadvantaged, promoting equal opportunity (and the “American Dream”)
My dad always told me.. don't ever count another man's money..
He's just regurgitatating what he heard in his graduate level economics class five minutes ago.
No one but the student should be paying for those loans. The most ridiculous concept.
and when the fees become unaffordable? No one goes to college , every leaves school after high school , education levels drop , no more inventions or bright ideas, standards drop all over the country. Good idea.
No amount of money is going to educate that guy. He shouldn't be in college.
Lol. That's what the college is teaching him.
I’m Asian who attended university in California. I got my education paid for by my parents and some other generous people. It wasn’t paid for by tax dollars.
And now with my hard earned money, I’m going to pay for my children’s education. I don’t know why I would ever become responsible for the education of some other people’s children.
Wow! I have to help my grown children to live in this economy. Screw paying for these entitled spoiled brats.
The rich won't pay , your neighbor will .
these kids don't care, they only care about continuing to be entitled toddlers

I demand taxpayers pay for my drinking binges and gender studies course so then I can then tell them that they are uneducated.
Having a more educated society is extremely worth the collective investment. Plus it’s way easier to enforce standards being followed and the ability to keep costs down if their tuition income only has 1 customer
