Then they can pay for it with their own money.
- wolverine876 3y agoI don't follow this argument, unless you mean everyone should pay for college with their own money (which they obviously can't), in which case it has nothing to do with their field of study.
- mannerheim 3y agoFreedom is for how you spend your money, not others'.
- wolverine876 3y agoSpending money collectively is necessary for freedom. No taxes, no common good, no freedom.
- mannerheim 3y agoYou are shifting the topic. It is not taking away someone's freedom to charge them different amounts of interest depending on how likely they are to repay a loan, or to not issue loans if they are unlikely to repay. They still possess the freedom to pay for it themselves.
- wolverine876 3y ago> It is not taking away someone's freedom to charge them different amounts of interest depending on how likely they are to repay a loan, or to not issue loans if they are unlikely to repay. It is if the person therefore lacks the ability to borrow, and lacks the freedom to study and make the most of their life. Trapping people in ignorance and poverty is quite a blow to their freedom.
- mannerheim 3y agoWork for a few years, go to community college and then a state university. This freedom is available regardless of one's ability to borrow.
- wolverine876 3y agoTo avoid going in more circles: So why isn't that happening more if it's so easy? Why does college education depend most on the wealth of the parents? The outcomes are empirical evidence that your theory sucks.
