Things that made you Facepalm today (Political Version)

So I can't get free college? Big sad.

I got free college. I joined the military. You might be too old though.

[Seran]

The point of my whole post was calling you out for presenting it as "free college' and leaving out all the actual details and restrictions, because you're a dishonest twatbutter like that.

You're more than welcome to keep crying about things though.

What part of free college was missing in my post or yours? Whether it's a universal tuition reimbursement in a state or free tuition for certain industry courses like your cherry picked example, it's still free. Stop your belly aching.

And obviously, according to Seran, if you don't live in one of thsoe states but get fired by Walmart, you should move to one of those states, wait 3 years to gain residency, and then get your free college. Oh, wait, sorry, a lot of them also require that you went to High School in that state too. Seran is so out of touch.

How funny that you would choose such a specific example to undercut what is a phenomenal opportunity for young people to get free continued education in states which offer it. I'm sure you feel victimized that even though it's available in so many blue and red states, it may not be available in yours. I for one don't think the success of a program is demeaned by one state not forcing every state to universally offer the same opportunity. But then again I'm a glass is half full person and you apparently are a glass is half on fire person.

Your assholish mockery aside, what state do you live in?

lol @ "cherry picking" for looking up how it works in my own state. Don't be butthurt because you decided to leave out critical information that makes a huge difference and then got called out on it.

Or maybe you really are just this stupid and still can't comprehend what I'm saying.

We'll go with both, because that's the most likely answer.

The only one belly aching here is you. Because of your chronic butthurt from getting called out 24/7/365 over your dishonesty and stupidity.

It's still a good thing for the people who will make use of it. But don't pitch it as if it's "free college" for literally everyone (hay gais these states have free community college!) because that's either you being dishonest, or you being too dumb and/or lazy to check into anything before posting it as fact. Which you're notoriously both stupid and dishonest, so you should be used to this by now, at least if it weren't for your inability to learn and retain information.


EDIT:

This is also how I know you didn't do any actual research on it past the "free college" headlines, or you would have known that the majority of students are still paying tuition, which literally answers the "how it's paid for" part from this:

You're gonna have to find out how it's paid for on your own, free tuition is what matters to folks and the opportunity to get ahead that presents.

Dumbass.

It doesn't matter what state it is, nothing is free. Someone is paying for it, and since I pay taxes, I suspect it's me.

I'm glad there are programs like those you've listed, even if they have very high bars to be eligible for them. They aren't free though, and it certainly isn't "free college". It's MAYBE tuition assistance, hardship scholarships. Still gotta buy books, food, a place to sleep, maybe even (gasp) work to have spending money.

The worst part is how Seran is so dismissive. People losing their jobs and he is all “just go get educated.” Well, that becomes harder to do without an income, free college or not.

Know who else says really stupid dismissive shit like that without a clue how anything works, along with no self awareness?

To be fair to Seran.. he's probably never had a job before so that entire concept is pretty foreign to him.

Every state has grant programs, tuition assistance and financial aides. As my post also pointed out there are state programs that pay tuition outright as well. I understand 'free' is a misnomer for you since you're a taxpayer, but presumably the person whose college your state or federal taxes is helping subsidize is or will be taxpayer as well. Our system of taxation is busted as fuck in how it favors the wealthy and corporations, but we don't get to choose an ala carte of where our taxes go.
