It boggles me when the middle class sees itself getting fucked, then decides that it's the lower class's fault - I mean, I understand the psychology, and that it's happened since Rome, but it's still so bizarre.

As the middle class evaporates, you'll see more and more "push-back" like this - even though it's ineffectual and does not point to the real problem(s) in any substantive fashion. We'll manufacture a news cycle's worth of outrage, rinse, repeat.

I guess you didn't learn to read, did you max. He didn't say that he doesn't agree with any scholarships that are not based on financial need. He said he doesn't agree with any scholarships where financial need is not the first criteria. That would be what the allcaps "FIRST" means.

Go be pathetic somewhere else.

I just came in to post a message similar to this. Clearly, reading ISN'T fundamental for max.

Actually he never said or even implied he approved of race based scholarships. All he was doing was pointing out the differences between this and minority focused scholarships. But like you always point out, we can't redistribute brains, so I doubt you would be able to understand that.

No, he doesn't imply that. You are inferring that, and you are inferring incorrectly, due to your inability to comprehend what he actually says.
