I support giving everyone at least 2 free years of college, and the colleges need to prepare people for jobs that are available in each area, plus train people for the jobs of the future. The people who are high achievers in college can continue on for their Bachelor's Degree, and Master's Degree, and they can become doctors, etc.

There needs to be good councilors at the community colleges to help to guide the students so that they get the most out of their 2 free years of college. The councilors need to be aware of which businesses are in each area and which skills are needed for employment in each area, etc.

The students who go to school, and who study hard, need to be rewarded with access to good employment and a chance at the American Dream of home ownership, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.

I'll give them two years of free college, after two years of their free community service.

Try flipping the order so we receive more valuable service from the participants since once they have their two year they can do service that requires their training once they have it - looking at you med techs

Another route would be a 4 year program that got you two years of school while you are doing your service. That can work as well.

Anyone willing to shlep up front for schooling on the back end is already doing it through the armed services.

To be fair re Ms Boebert

When you promise the end of times all you need to do is an an unimaginably shitty job to deliver on your word and that is exactly the type of work she is serving up.

Her name will be cursed for generations by all caught in the aftermath of her desolation

She is the embodiment of the failure in the American Dream.

Democracy needs a child safety lock.

We are not defenestrating nearly enough influential conservatives

The ones we are defenestrating need to be chucked from windows on much higher floors.

Just got back from partying my ass off with 2500 of my closest vaccinated friends in the western Mojave. It has been a hell of a ten day bender.

Missed you guys.

You too.   Was this a golf tournament?   Or Burning Man: Palm Springs Edition?  My guesses aren't the highest quality.

Obama calls open borders 'unsustainable,' migrant crisis 'heartbreaking'

He did not have the "progressive" sistahs to contend with.

https://news.yahoo.com/obama-says-open-borders-unsustainable-151600499.html

Of course "open borders" is a very bad idea...people by the *millions* just pouring in because they feel like it.
I'd like to buy a holiday apartment in NYC for $50...and the same in Vegas...but not everyone in the world can have whatever they want.
Not everyone in Mexico, Central America, South America, Africa, Middle East, Asia, can migrate to America illegally or legally.
Those places have been heartbreaking for a very, very long time...it's nothing new.

The "progressive" sistahs need standing up to.

No one can complain that the daily news has been boring this year.

And  who people tune to on Cable News has been very profitable for Fox.

Of the top 20 rated Cable News Programs (rated by total households)  Fourteen are on Fox, SIX are on MSNBC, and NONE are on CNN.

More interesting is that Fox gained viewers over the second quarter while MSNBC and CNN shed them.

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

Brian Murphy was correct about DHS being corrupted by Trump
