Like it was straight up made to be racist It would only drive down representation of minorities if they are not citizens. In a similar vein, I would not want a bunch of Americans voting in our Canadian election until such time that they became Canadian citizens. Had we been equally lax in our citizenship for decades, suddenly bringing in Question 13 on a long form census would no doubt dis-proportionally impact Americans rather than Bolivians or Russians, but the policy would nonetheless not be anti-American. It's a sensible census question, even if the guy suggesting it is himself anti-American. | ||

Quite the contrary, democrats want to empower these institutions to charge even more for education by flooding the system with federal money! This is not my experience. Perhaps democrats should focus more on this, but I've definitely heard it talked about in liberal circles that the current student debt problem is linked to the price creep of college education. You may be a bit quick to find things "quite curious" about the political party you generally disagree with. edit: by linked I mean, guaranteed funding for students means schools raise their prices, in part to woo more competitive students, and in part just because they can. | ||

I can see a lot of it happening so better to get it thrown out there now to remind everyone. Edit: To your edit, I don't consider it to be malicious. But better to err on caution, no? | ||

None of these "free college education" plans advanced by any of the candidates addresses tuition prices. In contrast, all of their health care plans place caps on health care costs. The contrast couldn't be more stark. | ||
