Free community college for everyone? We can all be Aric Hall! - Johann - 01-09-2015

Wow! In addition to textbooks, you'll need to acquire around 35 firearms of different types, to complete the Lassen College associate degree in Gunsmithing!

Quite a list!

Johann Wrote:As a gun-owner (you mentioned it before) and with your CJ, Security and counter-terrorism educational background, perhaps you might like to add an Associate Degree from the Sonoran Desert institute to your list - an Associate in Science, Firearms Technology. The school is accredited by DETC (now renamed DEAC).

It's not a community college, so it won't be free. :p

But it could still be expensive -- one has to acquire 35 different firearms. Now, if I took an auto tech course there, would I have to buy 35 cars?

The government can regulate how much someone charges if it considers it a necessity of living or a right to life such as food. It can force cap and trade, it can force eminent domain, and it can force people to buy something they do not want to buy. They can also force people to share their wages with the government through taxation. The government can also make owning gold illegal and confiscate the gold for its on purposes such as funding a war. Forcing a tuition reduction ins't so farfetched.
I would be hesitant to quote numbers from a "free market" think tank without more details on how they calculate the figures. Notice they don't link their source documents. I have a feeling there is some creative accounting going on. Big claims require evidence.
