    NGL, I can respect that. Probably on tax money let’s be honest, but kudos for wanting to be informed.

      Honestly, I’d much rather tax money go to that than to hand outs for corporations

        To be fair though, someone in that position of power should already be well educated. It should be a requirement so we don’t end up with the space lasers dipshit and the handy in a theater removed. It should also be a requirement to keep up with times by doing what this guy did.

        It takes more checks and balances to be a truck driver than it does to become a senator or someone in the house.

      Yeah but he got free classes while the rest of us suffered. Like to know how he vote on student loan debt.

      His salary is also from taxes so kinda either way.

      If we’re going to PAY for congressmen, the least we could do is make it free for everyone else.
