The Dirty Little Secret Behind "Free" Tuition

There is a dirty little secret about "free college tuition" that liberals like Hillary and socialists like Bernie are hiding.

Here is the scenario:

John  Doe wants a college education so he can get a good job making big money. He wants free tuition, naturally, so he votes for someone like Hillary or Bernie. What he does not understand is that nothing can truly be "free" - someone, somewhere is going to pay, by way of ever increasing taxes, and it will be the people who have money who will pay - the kind of people John Doe is going to college to become.

John succeeds, and becomes a CEO making good money. But it does him no good, because the policies that gave him a free education are the same policies that will now take his money from him, in high taxes, so liberals like Hillary can give free college, free health care and free whatever to the NEXT young person.

People need to understand - there is no such thing as a free lunch. You are going to pay, one way or another, sooner or later, for everything you get.

But the worst part is this - there is only just so much room at the top. Over 90% of those who get a college education will never end up at the top. They get their "free education" only to end up none the better off for it. With free college, even MORE people will go, and even more college grads will end up flipping burgers. Because there is just so much room at the top.

If you do get free tuition, you will eventually become the one that liberals steal from in order to "pay it forward" to the next guy. You WILL pay, many times over.

Of course, none of the liberals will tell you this - they just offer "free" stuff in order to extort votes from people under false pretenses.
