Incredibly stupid FB post of the day about Kyle Rittenhouse...

Michael this certainly is the gold dress/blue dress event when it comes to politics. BTW I'm sure all your conservative friends have been deeply supportive of Michael Byrd for shooting Ashli Babbitt when he felt at risk of harm.

On Mondays with Barns, an individual proposed that tuition fees should be determined by both the degree level and the class. This concept aligns closely with socialist principles.

A more market-oriented approach to achieving reduced tuition costs for degrees with low earning potential can be implemented within the capitalist system. The current challenge lies in the absence of caps on lending levels for government-backed student loans, which are not tied to the degree sought. This situation is akin to a bank offering mortgages for $200,000 for a home valued at only $100,000. To address this market distortion, there are two potential solutions:
