Schools are making a lot of money off kids going to school, tuition rates are borderline criminal

well, it's better than being called a Racist or a Something-phobe when the other side wants the last word.

Actually, it was a joke, but yes Communism and it's little brother Socialism, is antithetical to Freedom and Liberty. Communists hate that.

It's not the same Jim and why do you think her income was only derived from teaching? I believe her chair at Harvard was endowed anyways, so students did not fund her.
Are you trying to say you think there should be upper compensation limits in this country?

Where did Jim say that It was only derived from teaching. She is smart,accomplished,wealthy but still a lying hypocrite. Why do you lose focus when asked a simple question regarding the hypocrisy of her Harvard salary while maintaining her opposition for the outlandish price of college.

Because he’s wrong about what’s driving the cost of college
Meanwhile, teaching salaries, one of the biggest single line items, have remained relatively flat—much like those across most of the U.S. labor market. Despite heavy spending by a handful of top universities for the most talented, grant-winning researchers, most schools aren't seeing big wage pressures, largely because teaching jobs are in high demand.
"Overall, the aggregate level that institutions are spending on teaching and student-related services has been pretty much stable for the past 15 to 20 years, adjusted for inflation" said Franke, of the University of Massachusetts in Boston.

She made 400k teaching one class. That’s flat? That’s not driving the cost if tuition?
You are disagreeing, just because you can’t concede that even in this one obvious instance, I am right. You can’t do it. If I said two plus two was four, you’d deny it.

Yes I do. And I know that professors who make 400k for teaching one class, are obviously a big driver if the cost of tuition. And equally obvious, is that anyone making 400k for teaching one class, has zero business pretending to be outraged at the cost of tuition. One would only deny these things, if one were hopelessly, blindly, partisan.

your view on how money works is bizarre you also think Public employees should personally thank you for their pay check.. now you suggest a teacher in the system is profiting off children because of a pay check he or she gets.. Then compares it to predatory college lending Almost all student loan fraud claims involve for-profit colleges, study finds... it amazing to watch
