Wow, I just realized that the public education system is practically the very definition of a coercive monopoly. In short, it's having the ability to set arbitrary production policies and charge arbitrary prices, independent of the market, immune from the laws of supply and demand while being protected from competition by law- Nathaniel Brandon

@hitman40912 Have to laugh. They are like chalk and cheese. It's amazing how revisiting the past can causes such rose tinted views eh? Thatcher was a cracking PM. Had a war to win an election she would have otherwise lost. 2 recessions and destroyed the UK's manufacturing base to boot. Throw in Thatcher's children now of today that grew up in her moral vacuum and we now have the result 'Broken Britain' . There's virtually nothing Peter Advocates that she did.

Every argument Peter makes is logical and makes sense. We need people like him in the UK. Our last free market hero Margaret Thatcher is too old to make a comeback.

even schools like uc berkeley and ucla were about 7,000 a year until they were raised i think 30% this year. university of california might be a more fair comparison of price.

@MIT2004 in california colleges named after the city are private. like u of san fran or u of san diego so i thought it was private. i'm sure the schools receive tons of federal subsidies but california spends a fortune on public colleges. it's one of the reasons we're broke.
-
@bi0dude42O well as the name implies University of Houston is a public school. Perhaps there might be one detail that is being missed here. And it COULD BE that those colleges are subsidized by the government not to sure but could be.
-
All of you people talking about tuition rates, are any of these prices being offset by subsidies?

california public schools are cheap, i went to humboldt state in 2008 and 2009 and paid about 4,000 a year for tuition. i lived off campus, this isn't an option for freshman at csu's. rent was about 450. i was a community college transfer so i only went there for two years. it is a small rural public school so maybe a private school in houston is apples and oranges. california community college is about 24 bucks a semester. like i said, hella cheap.

@bi0dude42O i really find that hard to believe my friend goes to University of Houston and pays 5k a semester



Democrats are in the pockets of attorneys and bankers and the Republicans are in the pockets of big corporations. If Peter, Rand and Ron Paul don't win we are screwed.
