Our Universities are the Problem

[Coeurd’Alene J]

I have long lamented that professors at these places of learning are far to radical to teach our young people about America. They hate this country and everything it stands for, they have never worked at an honest job in their life.
There is a real fix and it just might work.

Defund the communists at our Universities

President Trump could drive a stake through the heart of the woke mob in a single stroke, by disqualifying colleges and universities who stand with the mob from access to federal funding, which amounts to nearly $150 billion from taxpayers annually from federal loan programs and research grants. Schools around the country have been cracking down on religious and politically conservative, patriotic students and professors – policing speech and punishing “thought crime” as if in an Orwellian dystopia.

Additionally, it’s time for patriotic alumni to stop giving to universities out of nostalgia and demand a return to classical academic focus instead of woke brainwashing of our children. Each year, colleges and universities receive over $40 billion in private donations. And parents should seek out schools that reject the forced leftist agenda. A recent survey of Harvard faculty revealed that 99% of professors self-identify as very liberal to moderate, and only 1% admitted to having conservative-leaning views.

These aren’t just toddlers squabbling in a sandbox. The campus-led assault on free speech and equal justice – to say nothing of objective truth – are a clear and present danger to freedom, justice, and our constitutional order. And they are inspiring a rising generation of pseudo-fascists whose tantrums, however ignorant, are quickly amassing a frightening criminal rap sheet.

Washington should cut these frauds and thugs off the federal gravy train, and make their access to taxpayer money contingent on them actually serving the taxpayers and the republic. Let’s force holier-than-thou woke professors and deans to decide which they care more about, their culture war or their cash.

To pile on all this you have Democrat’s wanting to forgive student loans and Democrats wanting to provide free education to everyone. Basically free indoctrination at our expense

YOU WANT TO FIGHT BACK AMERICA.......HERES ONE WAY

The professors profess to be patriots who love the USA. The Globalist movement is sold to the public as noble, virtuous, what Jesus would do, "We are all Citizens Of The Earth", "Nobody is Illegal", etc.
They are using publicly funded campuses and other publicly funded resources to force feed GLOBALIST / MARXIST political ideology to our kids. Take a look at all the mandatory PC classes that the students must take...at their expense too.

Same goes for the cities that our failed Liberal Leaders allowed to be destroyed. Not one penny of federal taxpayer money should be used to rebuild any of it. Every penny needs to come from the Libtard Enablers and Coddlers.

A few surprises in a recent report on which states turn out employment ready individuals from their colleges and Universities. Oregon, for example, and it couldn't happen to a nicer state, comes in at near the bottom at #45. Washington? Number 15. Number one is North Dakota! Michigan, Alabama, and Ohio come in in the upper 30's. So much for football powerhouses!

Quite a damning quote from the article I was reading that pointed me to the statistics:

"At the state level, poorly performing states should ask why so many of the programs offered by their public colleges failed the debt-to-earnings test. Either the colleges and their governing boards didn’t know that many of their programs hurt their students’ financial futures, or they knew and chose to do nothing. Either one is a damning indictment of their public higher education systems, a justification for a radical overhaul in many states."

In the case of Oregon, could it be all of their Social Justice programs?

That doesn’t surprise me. It’s absolutely amazing how far and how fast some of these states are falling and failing

Ya professing to love this country only if we tear it down and give them the power. I hope we defund the rot

As I've been posting over and over, the education system and the media are the two big enemies of western civilization right now. If they aren't stopped America is doomed. And if Trump doesn't stop them somehow someway, they will ensure that we never see a conservative in the top office again, or in the Supreme Court etc etc. I thought the justice department had been investigating foreign influence in our media but I haven't heard anything lately. I'm starting to think that money from China is influencing how our news is reported as well as our "career" politicians like Biden. And it's an obvious fact that the billionaires of the West have no loyalty to country (or even Western Civilization) and have been working towards turning this nation into a totalitarian state. Of course, people like Dennis Prager and Michael Savage have been warning about this for decades now while the left labels them hate-mongers.

The Trump administration has an idea worth considering. Unless the universities and colleges hire a more politically diverse staff, they cut government funding. Then too, they are thinking about taxing the endowment funds over $500 million dollars. Both would go a long way in righting the ship.

You've attended these colleges and universities, done the homework, gotten good grades, graduated and are in a position to render informed criticism. Hope you get the reception and audience you've earned.

Giving Joe Biden a run for his money, huh?

"fact should be remembered when critics of whatever qualification or motivation ascribe any ills of society, politics, or general behavior to "progressive education." Progressive education never had the chance to qualify either as the redeemer or the subverter of American civilization. Education does have a bearing on the quality of a culture; in general terms whatever is ascribed to education in terms of virtue or fault must be credited to a relatively conservative kind of school and classroom practice; for that is the kind of education that has been and remains dominant in the United States."
