Oh you are brilliant at digging holes, you dug an excellent one for yourself there!!!
Show me where the constitution says the gov has to feed you, barring incarceration or hospitalization.
Show me one law where a grocery store has to hand you food.
Show me where it says if you come to my house I have to feed you.
Show me where it says if you ask for my bread, I am breaking the law if I say no.

Economics is a social science and liberal art.
I’m reading an essay written by Milton Friedman. He argues that the government has an interest in ensuring its population has access to a liberal arts education, as that creates a knowledgeable citizenry. He argues AGAINST the government providing or supporting any sort of vocational or job training.
It’s really interesting watching people who claim to be disciples of his ideology advocate for everything he was against.

Just like your previous post that a BA Econ is worthless, look at AOC being a bartender, a hot young bartender in NYC still makes a shite ton.
Bartending paying more than the BA Econ does not support your argument. And she was a bartender because she couldn't get a job in economics, because a BA in Economics is ... a worthless degree.

I was very clearly talking about what I believe rights are, not what rights legally are in the US

ANY other loan on earth looks at money borrowed vs risk of payback. Student loans have zero collateral. Only caveat is it can’t be discharged by bankruptcy
Unlimited guaranteed borrowing vs zero chance of payback is one of the major reasons tuition had increased much faster then inflation and gdp.

the degrees don't earn you enough to repay your student loans, then they are worthless.
This is honestly one of the best things I have read this month.

Just universally cut federal loans for all degrees. It’s not up to the government to decide what degrees are worthwhile

It would be helpful if someone can explain why we need the government to offer government loans to history majors.
I'm not 100% sure on this one. If I'm wrong, I apologize and will admit to it.
I think my sister had to have some kind of history degree (not a major) in order to qualify as a teacher where she lives.

No its a science. Just saying words doesnt make them true. If youre not getting.l a BS in Econ ,then dont get an Econ degree. Its very simple.
Youre one of those that thinks math is an art too, huh?

How so, if they are footing the bill?
If my sister tells my nephew she's not going to pay for him to take an arts major, when she's footing the bill, can she not?

That is so amazing. You freaking libtards gave potato head auto-pen a 110% pass.
Trump, who's done more to protect and grow the US in the time he's been in office, than the last 3 of them combined, has dementia? Oh, my goodness, that's gaslighting at its finest.

You didn’t answer his question. Who is obligated to give you food?

No. That's called hand outs.

Calling economics a social science isn’t even controversial. It is a social science. Why does that upset you?
