If you want cheaper education then end government subsidies of tuition

Schools are naturally going to charge exorbitant tuition fees when the government is guaranteeing payment
yes but if you ignore future consequences the concept of free college is more enticing than cheaper college

aced 3 credit hours worth of a college geology class a couple years back and iirc there's plenty evidence that suggests global warming is a part of a cycle and not caused by humans-- we just sped it up. either way, i am all for dropping the use of fossil fuels wherever possible and focusing research/funds on renewable resources and sustainable urban agriculture, but to think that we can stop or even significantly slow down global warming is ridiculous and should not be made a top priority

weather and climate are Two Different Bros, bro. weather fluctuates chaotically, climate is the general trend or pattern we can find over time
it makes perfect economic sense that a college loan would be riskier to lenders than a car/house loan. the point he's making is that he thinks it's absurd that people have to make these massive loans to be successful in this economy. manufacturing isn't coming back in america; we're a services economy and people need to be highly educated. college education is pretty much mandatory, and this is only becoming more and more true, and college is only getting more and more expensive
there is a very high demand for skilled tradesmen across various fields and such jobs don't necessarily require college education. my old (public) school has a program you could start your junior year where a student would take 2 out of our 5 class periods every day to attend classes out in holland/zealand for areas of work from auto repair to cosmetology to network security. upon graduation, you'd have 2 years of hands-on experience, and for most it was enough to land a job or even a career in their desired field. i personally didn't even need to take advantage of that program to start my career as a junior software developer for a local company

college isn't mandatory to be successful or even to just live comfortably, and i believe that's what we should be teaching society. if you ask me, fixing the economy and education system should start at the roots: get rid of common core, put more funding into band/orchestra and workshop-type classes, instill a wider selection of electives, teach kids skills rather than how to take tests, and for forgets sake we should not take away or shorten recess and breaks. fix the first 12 years of school, see how that goes, then see what needs to be done for post-high school education

this is why I park far away from other cars-- the extra 10 seconds added to the walk is worth the assurance. last year some ass had the nerve to slam his door up against my car while i was still sitting in it. almost gave the boy these hands

I'm more of a bottom these days myself
well it seems to add up perfectly then ;)))

ya know, because the passat is widely considered to be a girly car

What's a reasonable price for a first car? I'm only 14 right now but my parents are both giving me ridiculously low price ranges for a first car at around $200-$1000.
the kbb value(selling to a private party) on my first car was between 900 and 1200. in such a low price range, you're basically guaranteed a piece of stuff, so imo just look for an old honda or toyota

i think that list was just speculation so the 'only save on rest' feature may not be added

How can I figure out how many rads I will get in the glowing sea?
you'll be good if you just pack several rad-aways and go in power armor

i have plenty friends who listen to hardcore genres - in fact most of the Christian ones do - and i myself as a Christian do as well on occasion, whether the band identifies as religious or not. here are some good examples(roughly ascending in heaviness) if anyone's interested:

for today - determination
august burns red - white washed
becoming the archetype - dichotomy
saving grace - shekinah
impending doom - death will reign
