It's appalling that you don't find the title extreme. No way will a tax plan completely destroy higher education as we know it.

Its simple. The schools are going to start including the cost of taxes when covering the grad students tuition costs. For example, if tuition is 50k + a tax of 10k. The schools will cover the 60k for tuition for a full ride. No school with a conscious is going to slap a grad student with a sizable tax bill.
- hcknwscommenter 9y agoAppalling? Now who is being sensationalist? What you are saying is that the school is going to bear the cost rather than the student. Probably. But then, the Ph.D. program just becomes much more expensive for the school to administer. As such, all but the most well-endowed are going to simply stop admitting Ph.D. students. Your simplified, and actually unworkable, accounting trick achieves the same effect of destroying our world-class and unparalleled STEM graduate system.
