The All Things Political Topic - We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office
I don't follow am afraid my poor handle of English is limiting me here or its my European experience with schooling system. How is making demanded schools free and only supporting top students in 'non-profitable' by grants creating abuse of 'less privileged' students? Are we still talking about merit here? Lessening the 'pool of perspective students' for' non-profitable' degrees is exactly why I am arguing for this

Thats why I think there should be grants for top students in all fields. But in general only those fields which are profitable in long run should be paid by state at large.

Well I agree with you (but we have different system here in EU than in US). I am just questioning if you should fund it by state or by yourself

The All Things Political Topic - We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office
I think I would argue that but I feel there is not point. I will leave it to more educated people to discuss

The All Things Political Topic - We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office
quite contrary. I am all for better and well funded universities. I just feel like we should be able to choose which are more beneficial and/or profitable. Also there is my leaning for exact sciences so you can take it with grain of salt

your point is irrelevant to our discussion. I also purposefully omitted discussion about what is 'education' as a whole but focused more on school system. You are asking carpenters to pay schools for social studies workers via their taxes. I am big supporter of state funded schools. I just think those money should be spend wisely. If per say in your state is big demand for doctors, you should support doctor studies. No-one is stopping someone to get educated in whatever they want, its just should not be on expanse of someone else. So If your dream is to be gender studies expert - be my guest and study as much as you want. Just don't ask me to pay it for you so it is either/or - you either spend tax money on educating someone useful skill marked demands or you spend it on someones whim. I think biggest offenders to this are people who than spend their life working for state. In that case someone from private sector basically pay for life to someone else. My father is bookbinder/printing machine operator and he only spend 3 years in school (after of course 9 years in basic school) yet he is very bookish and educated person. He just didn't needed state to pay for his 'education'

No I can't read cyrillic that well and less so understand Russian but this is first time I read something in quite negative tone to Russia by Russians. You must understand that media are very state controlled in USS... I mean in Russia so its very propagandist, thats why you got that tone impression from them. They just have to have that spin

Greenpeace are farce. Protesting for green energy by chaining themselves to most green energy sources in world is just telling. Two brain cells hardly meet in their heads- Funny Stuff: Joke-Wing vs Meme Fighter

I 'care' about small amount of people in my life independent on color of their skin. And anyone saying anything else about themself is layer in my eyes. Mind you there might be saints in our word and I applaud to them but I am not and by knowing a bit about myself I often project it on other people. I know its not great but I learned that I am not perfect and I am not trying to be. I don't have problem admitting it. I for example don't give flying F about whatever is going on in south america. I just don't as it does not affect my sphere of existence. I don't want anything bad happen to anyone but I can care only about those I affect by my own actions. But I don't have capacity to care about 6 billion people.- The All Things Political Topic - We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office
