Here's a fun one for you all. Churches, temples, and mosques are exempt from property taxes. What the fuck is that. Since their basic excuse for existing is as modern shamans, and psychologists, psychotherapists and their ilk pay property tax on their offices, how is that NOT a state sponsored endorsement of religion. What free services do Atheists get (I will cop to Atheism being a religion for legal purposes)

Amen to that brother!

To call humans 'rational beings' does injustice to the term, 'rational.'  Humans are capable of rational thought, but it is not their essence.  Humans are animals, beasts with complex brains.  Humans, more often than not, utilize their cerebrum to rationalize what their primal instincts, their preconceived notions, and their emotional desires have presented as goals - humans are rationalizing beings.

Education should not be free. The government has no business paying for it. At least not the feds.




They have no business charging for it if someone does it themselves without the aid of an institution. They have a responsability to accredit someone for the knowledge that they have no matter by what means it was achieved.


Requiring someone to take a class before they are allowed to recieve credit for knowledge they already have makes the higher education system a monopoly.


The way it is set up now, you must take a $400 - $800 class to recieve credit for the class. You don't have the option to just buy the book and teach yourself for $50.


There are a very few exceptions. (CLEP)

Let the states do it. It is not something the feds should be involved in.

I'd be alright with that.

Education is an investment that pays off. If your citizens are better educated, they're going to bring in more money to the state, and attract more businesses.


I don't think any taxes should be paid to the federal government. All taxes should be paid to the State, and the federal government would have to collect taxes from the state governments.




Or something like that. :yesnod:

That doesn't sound any better to me.

States shouldn't be recieving any funding from the feds. That way there's nothing to withold from them if they don't make laws that make the feds happy.

I still agree, but why should money flow from either to the other? There are more costs involved that way.

It may be another one of those ideas that look good on roling paper, but in reality don't smoke very good.
