So the first University in the United States was built roughly 1636.

The majority of Universities were built around 1860’s to 1890’s shortly after the civil war of 1861.

From there more universities were built.

And the most important part, is that in some cases tuition wasn’t charged to people until mid 1960’s

Key note, that a lot of tuition was downright free;

Some other universities that offered free tuition;

• University of California System: Until the late 1960s, the University of California (UC) system did not charge tuition to in-state students. Instead, students paid “incidental fees” for services like health care and campus activities. The UC system began charging tuition in 1966, following political changes and budget constraints under Governor Ronald Reagan.
• University of Florida: Similar to UC, the University of Florida was free for in-state students for many decades, with no mention of “tuition” for Florida residents in school catalogs until 1969.
• Michigan Agricultural College (now Michigan State University): Founded in 1855, it was initially tuition-free as part of the land-grant college system established by the Morrill Act in 1862, although fees for non-instructional costs were charged.
• Baruch College (then the Free Academy): Founded in 1847 as part of what would become CUNY, it was explicitly established to provide free education, setting a precedent for public higher education in the U.S.

The 1965 Higher Education act subsidized tuition and has aided in the current financial system regarding education.

Mind you, we had roads and all sorts of public infrastructure since 1800’s to 1960’s.

And to further add, we only started taxing income and capital gains tax as well as state and federal sales tax shortly after 1910’s.

So we raised a bunch of taxes, and then stopped making college and university tuition paid for by the government?

Does that make sense to you?

My pet theory

Is that (new) taxes were raised to create a natural entropy and attrition making the American Dream a leased affair where your privileges are rented and not granted as actual liberties or natural born rights. I mean, since when is loitering in a public commons considered a punishable offense if you are to have the right to assembly and use public spaces?

They made poverty and homelessness a crime, but also made it expensive to have a job and maintain a house. This is, my theory, by design.

Coupled with target unemployment rates being not-zero, meaning that economists are predicting models and trying to maximize the idea or concept of ‘labor markets’ and ‘labor value’ to create a supply and demand between job seekers and job havers. What I mean to say is, unemployment by design is aimed to not be zero percent for a reason. The target percent is typically 4%, which seems arbitrary in nature. People hungry for a job and also brainwashed to be thought lesser than for being idle or ‘non contributing’ by society is the social stigma that keeps the entropic treadmill of inflation running.

Being Idle is viewed as a sin, therefore existence by itself is no longer a virtue. You are condemned for non-contributable existences. This is, also, by design.

(As it turns out, eating and consuming shit to survive is a use of resources, and if doing so in exchange for money or other resources, then you are contributing to the consumerist society. So there’s no technical waste in idleness unless you resort to economic barbarism. There’s just a ‘stigma’ for being ‘invalid’, but most won’t judge someone that is bed-ridden or disabled the same way even if self induced)

I would argue things like military recruitment campaigns that aide with the GI bill and college tuition only further perpetuate the demand for a gainful employment, seeing as the military historically targets poverty areas to provide the moral righteousness of ‘opportunity’ to pull one out of poverty (that is arguably artificially induced) to send impressionable young heads to fight wars for political interests or geopolitical resources like lithium mines.

What I mean to say is, poverty is arguably manufactured to keep the working class hungry enough to kill others or do jobs demeaning for less pay and lesser working conditions. All of this by design. Desperate enough to keep your mouth shut thereby not contesting or critiquing the status quo of the current system.

If you just look at the timeline, it makes no sense for us to have free college, all the sudden start paying more taxes, and then no longer have free college. What was the tradeoff? More Corruption in political offices? Taxes are increasing and inflation is running amok, anyone with a brain can point that this is either a mere coincidence or a planned conspiratorial behavior extorting, laundering, and embezzlement benefiting from artificially induced poverty.

That’s where I argue that all of this is by design, there are enough dots to be connected to make a strong case. At the very least, it’s a mere coincidence that everyone is greedy and have contrived this system where we sell our future yet born for less and lesser each generational deficit cycle.

To include the amount of food waste and intentional destruction of surplus value of goods and services as well as artificial markup of life saving medication. There are obvious flaws in the entire ecosystem of markets, and they genuinely point to the idea of poverty being an original sin, that is bought out with indulgences of cash every so often resetting timers between rent, paychecks, taxes, and more to continue paying to play the game of life we live.

They try to squeeze as much juice and battery life out of you as a debt slave, disposable Triple A Battery, to keep their lights on.

As a side note

The average college tuition on the for profit system of a degree isn’t worth the squeeze in a general sense.

Here is a timeline, note how it sort of stops checking prices before 1960s. . . . . . Weird. It’s almost like something was free or a lot cheaper before 1960s. . . .

Notice how the data only goes to 1963;

Yet the data on the website, does have data on prices from 1920’s. It’s just weird that they wouldn’t represent any of that on their table? hmmmmm. Weird.

Most people with degrees will try to defend the institution and academics as well as the financials of their degree. This is a part of the system where the indoctrinated degreed people are defending their vested interest to perpetuate the status quo of the system they bought into. It’s not their fault, but it is their choice, which by virtue makes it their fault for defending the system as is. Anyone with a brain can say that the current system could do better and be better.

In Closing

Poverty isn’t the only thing manufactured, so is consent of the masses and willingness to further an agenda. The desire to pick up a gun, fly thousands of miles, and shoot some random person you’ve never known in their homeland for money or college or ‘insert desperate reason here’ is a tale as old as time. And we somehow parade it as a morally righteous thing to do while we invade foreign nation soil to spread “democracy” while allowing either China to rebuild their infrastructure or a slave market to take hold like in Libya. Mind you, these are typically non-congressionally approved wars.

Point being, there are too many cracks in the system for someone with average IQ intelligence to easily point at the facade and cracked mask of the system or society.

This is low IQ shit, that it simply doesn’t make sense. Either the system is way more complex, or it’s a racket and full of smoke and mirrors. The rational choice is both.

A simple timeline is one of many things that can radicalize you into pulling a thread that makes you realize that this game and life is a charade within samsara. That the current regime and power that be is not what it seems, and that your pay-to-play lifestyle was planned by people that have long drawn their last breath. This life was designed, whether as a dream or nightmare, it was designed.
