It was reported she made $400k for teaching one, single class. That's a good gig. Good enough where she wanted it bad enough, to commit fraud on her application, and exploit the atrocities against Native Americans, to get it.

"Oh, I forgot, education is a calling and you should work for free"

You missed the point COMPLETELY. If she wants to get paid $400k to teach one class, and students want to pay the massive tuition to fund that, that's their business, it's a free country. But she has no right to then claim that it's wrong to profit from student debt. That's the point. If she can get rich from students going into debt, so can anyone else. Sorry if that went over your head.

Unless you're saying, as she is saying, that she has a right to get rich off of student loans, but no one else does? Why does she have a right to live differently than anyone else?

Your response was a weak dodge.
Jim, her chair at Harvard is endowed.
Someone funded it specifically.
It doesn't cost students money and is a big plus to them to be in her class.

Your response is ignorant of the facts, but those silly things are inconvenient to Floridaman and Trumplicans.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Somebody is paying Einstein. That money could have been used elsewhere for good,instead of wasted on her shrieking.

Despite their endowment, they charge massive tuition, when they could let everyone go free for decades, and still wouldn't burn through their endowment.

Paul, I tried again here. If you can't admit that she acts one way and expects others to behave very differently, I can't converse with you, you're not capable of rational conversation. I hated just about everything about Obama. But I gave him credit when it was due (rarely, but occasionally), and obviously I can criticize Republicans when they have it coming.

I know you're not so stupid that you don't see the point I'm making. What are you afraid would happen, exactly, if you admitted she's hypocrite? In all seriousness, what does it say, that you can never, ever criticize a Democrat?
