votes for the Republican anyways
if you need a school you've already lost (Elon Musk)
Yet he's the richest man on Earth.
He'a the best argument against capitalism as a meritocratic system.
if you need a school you've already lost (Elon Musk)
I wonder how he got them there bachelor degrees? Hmm?!
I don't know much about his lore but I wouldn't be surprised if he spun his to portray himself as a gifted talent stifled by the school system
An educated citizenry is required for a well functioning democracy that benefits that citizenry. That is not in the interest of republican politicians and their benefactors.

We can't hire Americans **because they expect to be paid properly
Also the beauty of H1B visa people is that because they have to leave the country (or find another job) in 30 days in the even that they get fired, it means they are perfect for assholes like that billionaire. "Agree to do this or go back to that shit hole"
I sort of remember for Trump’s first term, one of his campaign promises was to set a salary minimum for H1B workers. Out of a thoroughly insane agenda, that was the one policy I liked, because it returned that program to its intent - hiring specialized experts that can’t be found here.
Of course, he didn’t follow through and do it.
"We can't educate Americans if we want to keep winning elections"
It costs money, has long term effects, and helps people so that’s a no go.
It's not even that. It makes people less blindly compliant to authority, and that's absolutely unacceptable to Republicans.
"What do you need an education for anyway? I didn't have an education and look at me now; I'm president of the United States!"
It's the government's job to educate the masses! But not like that! And not with my money!
The continuation of the piss poor US income distribution and 3rd World working conditions.
They want what's best for them, not what's best for us. Cheap, loyal labor from countries worse, off than ours is ideal.
Let the Americans eat paste.
And we hate immigrants, but we need all these H1B visas because we don’t want to educate our own citizens to do the jobs that support the middle class. Then we will scapegoat those people and accuse them of being the problem.
Or, god forbid, give people citizenship after a year or two.
Isn’t muskrat worth like 400bill? He could put 200,000 kids through college all 4 years at 50k/year (which many schools fall under mind you but let’s be conservative).
He’d have 300bill left.
Edit: lol he’s worth 486bill so he could do the above and be worth 386bill more or less assuming literally no exceptions to 50k a year. He could probably pit half million through for that with minimal effort.
It should simply not be legal to have more money than you could possibly spend in your lifetime.

If only they knew what the E in DEI stood for.
That would assume two things... and both of those require education. As trump famously said last goddamn time... he loves the uneducated.

That’s because the money goes into billionaire’s pockets instead, who would rather just import dirt cheap labor and face less wage pressure.
To be fair, the MAGA crowd does not want to take the required schooling for those jobs. What can you do...
