You're right. Citizenship is far more important.

You can choose where or even to go to college.

Fail again, imbecile

WSJ is trash.


It is one of the most conservative newspapers out there. Same owner as Fox News. What do you read/watch? InfoWars? Breitbart? Come on, man. That's propaganda.

It wasn't just student government you tart. It was an open campus vote.

You don't vote...You can't complain. Or are you one of the pussy hat wearing sky screamers who didn't vote but Trump is not your president?

The funny part is that when it comes to citizenship, you would almost certainly argue against raising taxes (based on what I know about your ideology from the poli board).

And yet, you are somehow in favor of raising student fees (which you have now implicitly admitted is true).

Ironic.

An end of a sample space continuity doesn't not imply ideological identity, merely position relative to others in the sample space.

Fail yet again.

Less than 5% of students voted, but student fees increased by about 50%. They have not and will not go down.



Maybe more students should have voted

Right, but very few students actually vote and administration knows this. Who do you think concocted the plan in the first place? You are a straight-up conspiracy theorist, and yet you refuse to believe that the university administration can manipulate a student referendum? Wow, dude.

If the citizenry in a town votes to raise taxes for 3 years to build a new community center that IS THEIR CHOICE AND VOTE.

You know nothing about self determination, sky screamer.

I've honestly never head that one before. Points for originality, I guess.

Actually it was a joke at first...submitted by a fraternity that got traction.

Calls someone a conspiracy theorist.

Says administration manipulated referumdum.

Again, I have no dog in this fight, but you are embarrassing yourself.

Uh, no. The editorial portion of WSJ is very conservative from a financial point of view. No, they are not Breitbart conservatives (an oxymoron, really) like you. They are actual conservatives. You know, the kind who want limited government and lower taxes?

He actually is a conspiracy theorist. If you posted on the poli board you would know that. Like three days ago, he was over there claiming the Alabama Senate Election was rigged. Something about bussing voters in from Mississippi or some crap.

Actually their editorial board was against the current tax cuts last month.

Fail again. I read it everyday, you clearly don't. I'm sorry you're stupid.

Because those "tax cuts" are actually tax increases for many people.
