Let me explain this in a more organized manner. To start, conservatives have three basic values: democracy, the free market, and religion. The oppose marxism because it is totalitarian, socialist, and atheist.
The opposed the old universities because they believed they were marxist. They like it that the new universities have become more expensive because that keeps people out of universities, or when they are in they enroll in business-oriented programs rather than the humanities, which are rather anti-business. They like it that universities have abandoned education in favor of entrepreneurship. And they like the student loan program because it helps universities be like businesses, and makes lots of money for financial corporations. Do you really disagree this is what conservatives think and feel?
- jcizzle 10y agoWhat is a 'financial corporation'? Is there a non-financial corporation that exists? How have universities abandoned education to favor entrepreneurship? How were universities previously not like businesses, and how do student loans - which have existed for quite some time - make them be 'be like businesses'? If the axes for conservatism are democracy, the free market and religion, where do people who only care about 1 or 2 of those items fall? Since college enrollment is rising significantly, how is it keeping people out of universities?
