29 Shocking Facts That Prove That College Education In America Is A Giant Money Making Scam

College Graduates By Kit from Pittsburgh, USACollege education in the United States has become a cruel joke.  We endlessly push our high school kids to invest tens of thousands of dollars and at least four years of their lives to get a college education because they won’t have any sort of a “future” without it.  So they sign up for decades of debt slavery and spend years listening to pompous windbags fill their heads with utter nonsense.  The sad truth is that most college courses are a total joke and they do very little to actually prepare those students for the real world.  I know – I attended public universities in the United States for eight years.  Most college courses are so easy that the family dog could pass them.  When they finally graduate, our young people discover that they were lied to all along.  The promised “good jobs” are not there for most of them, but the huge debts that they committed themselves to will follow them around permanently.  When you are just starting out and you are not making a lot of money, having to make payments on tens of thousands of dollars of student loan debt can be absolutely crippling.  This is why I say that college education in America is a giant money making scam.  Our young people are seduced by the idea of college being a five year party that will provide an automatic ticket into the middle class, but the reality is that the only guarantee is that it is a ticket to serfdom unless you have wealthy parents that are willing to foot the bill for you.  And bankruptcy laws have been changed to make it incredibly difficult to get rid of student loan debt, so once you have signed up for student loan debt slavery you are basically faced with two choices: either you are going to pay it or you are going to die with it.

35 Shocking Facts That Prove That College Education Has Become A Giant Money Making Scam

College education in America is a bad joke.  Instead of preparing the next generation of leaders for the jobs of tomorrow, the college education “industry” has become a giant money making scam.  We constantly preach to our high school students that they “need” to go to college and we tell them to not even worry about how much it is going to cost because a college education is “always” worth the money.  Then we lend them outrageous amounts of money so that they can pay the gigantic bills for the “education” that they are receiving.  But the truth is that the quality of education at America’s colleges and universities is absolutely abysmal these days.  I spent 8 years at U.S. universities, and most of the courses that I took could have been passed by the family dog.  Sadly, once our young people graduate they quickly discover that there are way too many college graduates and not nearly enough good jobs.  Today, we have millions upon millions of young Americans that are enslaved to student loan debt for the rest of their lives.  They were promised a bright future, but instead most of them are discovering that they are going to be working really hard to pay off financial predators for decades to come.  Unfortunately, for most college graduates a diploma is simply a ticket to a crappy job and a lifetime of debt slavery.

College Education?: Shocking New Research Proves That Our College Students Are Learning Next To Nothing

Have you ever wondered what all those college students are actually learning?  Well, according to one shocking new study, they are apparently not learning much at all.  According to very extensive research detailed in a new book entitled “Academically Adrift: Limited Learning on College Campuses”, 45 percent of U.S. college students exhibit “no significant gains in learning” after two years in college.  For many Americans, a statistic like that comes as a complete shock, but for anyone that has spent much time in or around U.S. colleges lately this should not come as much of a surprise.  This new research also found that today’s students spend approximately 50% less time studying than U.S. college students did just a few decades ago.  What this research shows is what many of us have known for a long time – that the quality of college education in the United States today is a complete and total joke.

16 Shocking Facts About The Student Loan Debt Bubble And The Great College Education Scam

As you read this, there are over 18 million students enrolled at the nearly 5,000 colleges and universities currently in operation across the United States.  Many of these institutions of higher learning are now charging $20,000, $30,000 or even $40,000 a year for tuition and fees.  That does not even count living expenses.  Today it is 400% more expensive to go to college in the United States than it was just 30 years ago.  Most of these 18 million students have been told over and over that a “higher education” is the key to getting a good job and living the American Dream.  They have been told not to worry about how much it costs and that there is plenty of financial aid (mostly made up of loans) available.  Now our economy is facing the biggest student loan debt bubble in the history of the world, and when our new college graduates enter the “real world” they are finding out that the good jobs they were promised are very few and far between.  As millions of Americans wake up and start realizing that the tens of thousands of dollars that they have poured into their college educations was mostly a waste, will the great college education scam finally be exposed?

What Do You Think Would Have Happened To America If Hillary Clinton Had Won The Election?

As I travel up and down Idaho’s first congressional district, I frequently talk with voters about how we almost lost everything in November 2016. When I ask what a Hillary Clinton presidency would have meant for this country, almost every single time I get a response like “it would have been over” or “we would have been finished”. Our Republic was already hanging by a thread going into 2016, and even four years under Clinton may have been enough to wipe out any hope of ever turning things around. The election of Donald Trump was literally the greatest miracle in modern American political history, but it doesn’t mean that our Republic has been saved. What it does mean is that we now have a narrow window of opportunity to save our Republic. (Read More...)

Michael Snyder’s Campaign For Congress Has Just Received Two More Major Endorsements

There are less than 100 days to go until the primary on May 15th, and our campaign just continues to pick up more momentum. We just received two more major endorsements, and more extraordinary people are joining the campaign with each passing day. If you would like to join the team, you can find our volunteer page right here and our online donation page right here. Earlier this evening we learned that we have officially been endorsed by Vote Team Trump, and we are extremely excited about that. Those involved in the Trump movement all around the country are recognizing that this extremely close race here in Idaho is one of the most critical Republican primaries. One of my main opponents has publicly stated that Donald Trump “can go straight to hell”, and if he wins this open seat it will be an absolute disaster for the Trump movement. (Read More...)

Vote Pro-Trump On May 15th – Here Are 28 Reasons Why You Should Support Michael Snyder’s Campaign For Congress

The future of the Trump movement is going to be decided in 2018.  If the Democrats take back control of the House and the Senate this year, they are going to try to impeach President Trump.  But that isn’t the only danger.  If establishment Republicans remain in control, they will continue to block much of the Make America Great Again agenda in Congress.  That is why it is absolutely imperative that we get out to vote for pro-Trump candidates in the Republican primaries that will soon be happening all over the nation.  Because if our pro-Trump candidates don’t win these primaries, we won’t even have anyone decent to vote for once November 2018 rolls around.  Personally, I am running a pro-Trump campaign for Congress in Idaho’s first congressional district, and if you would like to help us win on May 15th, you can donate online right here.

Amazing Things Are Happening For Michael Snyder’s Campaign For Congress!

Yesterday I got back from the best campaign trip down south that we have had so far. It has been difficult for me to get to sleep these days, because I am incredibly fired up about the tremendous momentum that is building for our campaign. I am so thankful for those of you that have been donating and volunteering, because without you none of this would be possible. I thought that I was going to have to run as a “political outsider”, but so many members of the Idaho state legislature are now very enthusiastic about what we are trying to do. In fact, our campaign was just officially endorsed by Senator Dan Foreman. Dan is one of the top conservative voices in the entire state of Idaho, and to have him on our side is a major breakthrough.

A 25 Point Blueprint For A Pro-Trump Congress

In 2016 the Trump movement took the White House, and now in 2018 we can take control of Congress.  The mainstream media and the Democrats are eagerly anticipating a massive anti-Trump backlash in November 2018, but I say that the mid-term elections will be a golden opportunity to give President Trump dozens of new allies in Congress.  The Make America Great Again agenda is a winning agenda, and if we are able to mobilize pro-Trump forces all over the nation we can pull off another miracle next November.  But first, we have got to win the Republican primaries that will start happening early next year, because otherwise we won’t even have any pro-Trump candidates to vote for in the mid-term elections.
