I suppose having a child go through college and graduate debt-free is reward enough. I think so. Generally, the important rewards in life are often non-linear. It seems later, after the fact, one begins to think - what have i done right, to deserve it? And, maybe having such doubts is the best reward.
Speaking of college... I doubt there is such thing as free education. In the USSR, in return, one had to take numerous mandatory courses - like, the History of the Communist Party, and several courses in Marxist views of history, as well as in the eponymous philosophy of Dialectic Materialism.
The latter sounds terrible, but it’s a fairly sensible materialistic philosophy - if that’s what one likes. Not nearly as mystical and irrational as the belief that a person's gender is a social construct, unrelated to biology... and that race is not genetic, but rather assigned to a person at birth by the dominant power structures.
Free college will likely come with a hefty price tag. |
