[QUOTE="WormWiggler, post: 195616, member: 245"] [COLOR=#111111][FONT=Arial] I believe the fact that Higher Education is an economic engine is not being disputed. I would think the goal would be for the taxpayers to see break even on the tax dollars invested at the initial level. But keeping in mind that uses of funds need to be justified. as a simple example... College of Sausage in Wishek opens, legislature gives them a million for expenses. Being good administrators they educate all comers for 800K. The remaining 200K? where does it go? Bonuses? I would hope not... Rainy Day fund, not a favorite of mine for the government to had, temptation and all. Returned to legislature? those fools would just blow it. Reduce costs for students, that is where I think it should go. I am not a fan of taxpayers dollars being spent on entertainment. period. Even if the entertainment is a profit generator, the capitalist in me thinks someone would pick up that ball, but likely won't if competing with the government.[/font][/color] [/QUOTE]
