Should All Federal Research Grants to American Academia be Halted?

[orogenicman]

Unreal. Yes we should pull every last dollar out of universities so our kids have nowhere to study math and science. Then everyone can work in a factory for $15 an hour and darnit they should be thankful for that job and that so generous pay. Give it to the private firms, the ones who will hire people and pay them a massive salary like $15 an hour. Everyone wins right? Perhaps its time to swallow our American pride and watch how the Finns do it. They value education, we have ALOT of people who don't.

Universities existed in the USA before the Government existed or began to fund them. Capitalist Rich people built the first Universities and many more since then.

We don't need to send our kids to your crappy liberal run government universities that will put each student in debt over a $100,000.

Thus far, Wind and Solar Research is a 100% failure, otherwise we would not have to spend over $36 trillion undisputed dollars, think this government run program won't go over the projected budget?

Well, the only part of that rant that was the right was first two sentences, with a caveat. Those capitalist rich people were also liberals in training, and in at least one case, a socialist (in practice, if not in name). Liberal arts schools teach a liberal education, and always have. You didn't know this? Huh. But the word liberal in this instance doesn't mean what you think it means. A liberal education is "an education based primarily on the liberal arts, emphasizing the development of intellectual abilities as opposed to the acquisition of professional skills" (dictionary.com). Now, if you have a problem with our citizens attaining intellectual skills, I really have to ask what is your objection? Do you wish our students to all be complete idiots so they can more easily be preyed upon by others? Or are you simply jealous? What's the beef?

Jealous? I know what your beef is, you have been getting your butt kicked by me up and down these threads (meow). If a Liberal Arts school is so great why don't you go get an education at one?

Yes, Liberal Arts, not really learning anything specific, perfect for the economy being forced upon us by the Liberals. Mostly undergraduate stuff, right.

Learning the opinion of Chomsky and Zinn can not be called an education, and that is what is taught in a Liberal Arts college.

Seeings how this thread is about Research grants, in the Environment forums, chances are we are not speaking of Grants to Liberal Arts Colleges!

I see you went to the dictionary for your definition, nice try, liberal arts, too funny, not applicable here, dummy, you failed, and that to your beef with me.

In the 9 years I went to college, not once was I taught anything, nor did I read anything by or about Zinn or Chomsky. It wasn't until after I graduated and entered the work force did I hear of those two individuals. And even then, it mattered not to me.

But I did receive a well rounded education; being a science student, such a liberal education is a requirement. After all, one never knows what idiots (ahem, hint hint) one might meet.

It wasn't a boast. She asked me "If a Liberal Arts school is so great why don't you go get an education at one". That was my response. Not that it is really anyone's business. Perhaps your friend took so long because they paid as they went: You know, worked while going to school to pay for tuition. I know a lot of people who have done that. It takes longer to graduate, usually, but I see no reason why they should be ashamed of the time it took. They accomplished their goal, and should be proud. And you should be proud of them as well.

Oh, sorry, obviously I did not consider you might of passed with a "d". So why did you go to the dictionary for a definition of Liberal Arts? After 9 years one would think you could define it on your own.

Yes Zinn and Chomsky, I am not surprised you did not know of the two most influential liberals on the college campuses. Just shows how much you paid attention.

Education, you are either smart or you are not, 9 years of college? A man born a dummy will remain a dummy, you can't teach it out of him.

Me, my education? Seems good enough to run circles around you. No University here, just USMC, 2 yr electronics engineering, another year when I got out in computer technology, than sales and service training at xerox, then educated in the Nuclear power industry.

I am an Electrical Power Research Institute Analyst

I do scientific stuff, analyze hysteresis losses, make reports, give them to engineers so they can adjust chemistry and or operating characteristics of nuclear power plants.
