Yeah it feels insane to me. Like if the price of milk went up to $50 a gallon the solution would be to increase supply, figure out alternative products, etc. A stupid solution would be to build a system of loans, government subsidies and other programs that allow people to pay the $50, but that seems to be our go to way to solve problems.
- geezerjay 8y agoI have yo agree. The first thing that crossed my mind when I saw the $1.8B figure was "with that kind of cash why doesn't he just launch his own university?". I mean, that astronomical level of cash is more than enough to keep a lot of high-paying jobs for some decades without any revenue at all, not to mention building the infrastructure. I'm sure he would be more than welcomed in any midsized city if he reached out to any local government asking for help building a college campus.
