Bloomberg: College costs up $10K every 4 years

[1srelluc]

Borne by inflation, college tuitions are rising even faster. Yale University, at which the cost of tuition, room and board has jumped $10,000 every four years during the last decade to $70,000 in 2019, totaled more than $80,000 in 2022.

The price is well above what the average American household earns. To be sure, the costs of running the schools also increased 5.2% last year, the most since the turn of the century. Yet, while half of students receive some form of financial aid, the galloping price is fueling discussions of what a four-year degree, especially from elite Ivy League schools, is worth.

I swear, if the feds announced that they would give unlimited 3% loans to buy cars, no questions asked, a Honda Accord would cost $150k.

Don't forget the corporate executives that "manage" these places give themselves a 40% EVERY YEAR, double thier perks, "benefits", and "administrative needs".

If you got rid of these corrupt, vile, depsicable leeches.........these colleges could run for free for quite a few years.

The Left needs to keep out the riff raff.

They need a place to send their kids that only the rich can afford.

Then the corporate world can pick their employees from that list to give the highest paying jobs.

It would be akin to only allowing your children to marry their cousins, very incestuous but it keeps out any uppity types that may try to bring in new ideas to places of authority around the country that may not agree with being woke.
