The Science is Settled that Global Warming will cause the oceans to rise, increase tremendously the water vapor content of our atmosphere and that CO2 is the primary culprit.

Well, a major source of CO2 is breathing. This is something that the Homo Sapian does without conscious effort and does nothing to attempt any substantive control thereof.

Obama Care can do wonders for this problem. ‘FEWER PEOPLE TRANSLATES TO REDUCED CO2. If there is anything that is a virtual “slam dunk”it is that if ObamaCare is enacted in the long run there will be fewer people. See the two go hand in hand.

The logic is irrefutable, Obamacare will increase abortions, reducing not only immediate population growth but reducing it geometrically as these deleted additions do not multiply. At the other end of the time Line the Death Panels will significantly reduce elderly “breathers”. Last but not least the general deterioriation of “medicine” as a practice and a science will decrease general health and thereby populations aka polluters aka breathers.
So, Cap and Trade needs to be made a part of the Obama Care legislation in the same manner as Student Loans. Capice

Let’s say
I owe $50,000 in student loans
20,000 are subsidized
I recieve food stamps and I apply for an economic hardship deferment
or
I am unemployed and I apply for an unemployment deferment
or
I enroll in another semester of college and I receive an in-school deferment

The government pays the interest on the 20,000 that is subsidized. Why should a private bank get money? These loans are guaranteed by the government, if a person defaults the bank still gets their money.

Now they want to subsidize 31M more without insurance while claiming it won’t add to the deficit or cost us more??? These are the same people who gave us Medicare and provided loopholes for fraud & now crying poverty and cutting back on Medicare to fund this Reform bill… they gave us Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae for making home ownership more affordable for ‘those’ without while strong arming banks to give out loans to those who couldn’t afford it. So now they want to take over College Loan Funding away from the banks, etc. for making it more affordable for those without… passing the cost and burden to those of us struggling to put our own kids thru college. Not only that, but they will force our kids to go into Community Svc or work for the Gov’t for x-amt of time in order to qualify for lower student loans or Free education… essentially having control who gets into these schools… Remember the ’70s & ’80s and schools having mandated Fed Quota’s on certain student population groups? This is nothing more than additional Gov’t intervention and a means to promote BO’s “redistribution of the wealth”.

Wake up America… ever hear of Norman Thomas?

And then there are those “science” degrees.

Basically, “educators” have lost all touch with reality.

(If my tongue were any more firmly in cheek, it would poke out through the other side.)

Also, accreditation has the power it does because virtually all decent colleges (no, not quite all) are accredited. If the jackboots came down too hard, there’d be a mass exodus and employers would be forced to do a little more due diligence than just “Is your college accredited?”

It’s a bit like homeschooling. For years and years, most employers required a high school diploma from a “real school.” But now there are so many homeschool graduates, whose academic success is so widely documented, that almost all such employers will accept a homeschool diploma. Even the US Army. A few don’t but they are mostly liberal outliers and tend to get sued.

So I think that as long as there is any freedom or significant private sector left, this issue would shake itself out. And if there aren’t, getting a college degree will be the least of problems for our kids.

Now if we go back to a private sector dominated economy then the competition can begin as to who firms are going to hire between a graduate of the University of Government or a graduate from one of those independent colleges.

Unless of course they attempted to ban non-compliant institutions. I’m not sure if they can do that, but you never know.

The Student Loan takeover is scored as a huge savings, since they are (supposedly) going to make a profit by running a bank, rather than providing a pure subsidy.

So they’re shoving it into the bill in order to improve the CBO score. The is the House sponsor of the bill: George Miller (CA). He’s head of Education Committee, and has also been at the very forefront of the Healthcare overhaul.

And again, as alluded to above, the control of universities – on top of the K-12 power grab from the national curriculum and “Race to the Top” that the government can exert by controlling eligibility for student aid – I really have to say this is straight out of the Soviet playbook of total government control over the content of education, which is the necessary (but as history teaches us, no sufficient condition for creating the “New Man”.
