What do you think "free college for all" does?

destroys us.

devalues college to bascially being a high school diploma

Also correct.

lowers the quality, and creates a giant burden on the taxpayers

Tbh at some point the political parties have to be upended, on one side or the other

Eliminates competition between colleges.

They should be, Beemann

But it's a 'You First' standoff.

There's too many "this exists because why would politicians vote against it" scenarios

That's why, right now, we need to try to reform one party

and I don't think we'll get very far with the Democrats.

It also crystallizes Social Justice forever and makes college even more important for getting a good job.

@RyeNorth what do you propose?

As I've said

Get involved with the Republican Party.

A political party is it's membership.

The only way to sway one is to join one and start steering.

This is how the Democrats got to where they are.

They're in their Donkey-shaped Zord already. We're still on the ground getting stepped on.

Yeah.

Though I don't think the Republican party is nearly that powerful.

Two words. Donald J. Trump.

I threw a letter in free.

Really, there needs to be a better ACLU. One dedicated to protecting free speech without reservation.

An alternative to the SPLC that doesn't just make hatchet jobs to deperson people.

Organizations to connect people and get them to help, as the church did in the past and groups like We (on the left) do now

I'm building a damned Internet Radio Station to sway shit in my state.

Pay me. 😄

A stronger NRA that's not just playing fiddle to the party and embarrassing itself.

The *terms of the discussion* matter as much or more than the office holder.

the NRA is also run by the membership.

Think people should pick up the anarchist's cookbook? Assuming just the communications and organizations part.

The most controversial thing I think the right/center needs: something like a union that protects people for promoting non-left values.

unionizing isn't a right thing.

Admittedly part of the problem.

Anarchists' cookbook was written by a guy who didn't really test what he was doing.

Unions... are part of the problem

But I'm allergic to the term union.

I am too.

It makes me twitch involuntarily.
