DRAIN. THE. SWAMP. (not really, lets give jobs to my billionaire donor buddies and sell out on kids/families that can't afford posh private schools).

America is competitive in tech fields because they raid India and China of PhDs, doctors, and high level college grads, if anything those countries should be furious with the US for that, but in general the country is getting dumber:

Without these (gasp) immigrants the US would be fucked competitively in fields like tech and medicine. They are not a very intelligent country relative to the resources they have.

Come on Soundwave, the reason the students education and debts is bad, is because of .gov itself. Reagan was right on that .gov man coming around.

Government should put an end to ridiculous debt/for profit machines that are the US college/university and healthcare systems.

These systems are not designed to serve the people, they are designed to put regular Americans into crippling debt that they then have to pay interest on for the rest of their lives (or at least their 20s/30s) so that rich investors can make money off their debt. 

The US education system is a scam. It can be $20,000/year to go to even an "average" school ... that is fucking ridiculous. People shit on millenials, but these kids are being set up to fail when they have $40-$50k in debt before they even get into their mid-20s.
