College prices are easy, medicine not so much

just do what canada does

college for canadians is like 5% of what it is for internationals, and it can only go up 1% a year or something

no cap on how much internationals can go up

the chinese subsidize my schooling

Maybe the angle is to add a ceiling on the amount you can reap from a drug patent

so really successful drugs max out

pika you fix college by not giving out loans anymore

and become "public domain" quicker

idk leg

works for us

yours is just super fucked

The problem with our system Pika, is we guarentee every kid a "free" $30k loan

federal government interference in education is blatantly unconstitutional

so every school increased prices by 30k

yeah see, that is the problem

I have 9k in loans right now

that I need to repay after 4 years of school

The way to fix it is easy, I've said before you disallow public loans for fiscally irresponsible institutions

needing a 30k loan is insane to me

privite schools can do whatever the fuck they want

but schools with a huge admin overhead, are denied the free goverment money

also I assume these loans are through banks for you guys, or do your governments handle the loans?

start denying loans to students who aren't applying to useful degrees

make a national focus on science

fuck that

I don't want retards in my programs

no Pika

through the goverment

oh okay

Obama banned private loans for school

also just make the loan performance based

FAFSA

is performance based but it doesn't matter

if loans went away, colleges prices would plummet, but they'd be out of reach for some

so you need to mantain some level of available funding

but you need to ensure it can't be spent at institutions who are price gouging

aka, unis with 40% admin costs and stupid unchecked spending

if you can't afford college then go to trade school or get an apprenticeship

fuck that Leg

College shouldn't be a multi-generation endevour

become an electrician then go get an electrical engineering degree

I am a proponent of not going out and doing something just to make money so I cannot agree

if you want to go to some university and study pure math you should be able to if you have the aptitude to do so

and the money to pay for it

that's like saying we should have parents pay for K-12

it's a dumb libertarian ideal

again, if your system was less fucked that would not be an issue

like privatizing roads

4 years of school for me is about 10k in loans

that is repayable

you subsidize with taxes though Pika

yes

it's not free

i'd advocate for publicly funded college if there was a way to restrict the degrees that are funded by it to STEM

you have the same problems we do, where colleges spend unchecked

and business

the government just foots the bill

also true

university president here makes 400k a year

Fuck that Leg, I don't want to factory farm degrees

that's what Europe does, and it sucks

lol

@Traps are gay is this accurate?

Actually you should just do what my university does, only get donations from engineers so you build a new engineering building every year

we are up to E9

with plans for E10

The craziest thing I hear from leftists

is about cars

I don't get it

they want to ban private ownership of cars

Spooky just mandate everyone owns a shared tesla

climate change btfo'd

that's just it

I don't get it

why are "fleet cars" somehow their ideal

it's a literal dystopia

not owning a car

being at the whim of future Uber
