<p>Floridadad: I disagree with you on so many levels but one thing that really makes me cringe is the part about no subsidized loans for “anthropology degrees.” (I am assuming you would favor only subsidized loans for vocational type jobs and STEM) I have noticed this is an increasingly common talking point for conservatives and it scares the heck out of me. Is it that they think certain degrees will strangle all that liberal bias in academia by choking off creativity etc…?</p>
<p>And I would like to see the statistics you speak of about how taxing the rich to death will make no difference in our deficit. I am also waiting for the job makers, who with their Bush/Obama tax cuts are saving more money, to create some jobs. Yeah, that is working well.</p>
