There was a thread about a week ago misleadingly citing some quotes from Mark Cuban. He is n the news again, commenting on Hillary's college plan. So here it is for those who think he is insightful:

“[Hillary’s plan] stands a better chance of increasing the amount of money students owe than decreasing it,” Cuban said on his Cyber Dust app on Friday.

“Just as easy money led to the real estate bubble a few years ago, the easier it is to borrow money for college the easier it is for colleges to raise tuition. Tuition keeps going up because no matter how high they raise it, students can still borrow more to pay for it,” Cuban continued.

This is true, in theory. Hillary's plan calls for more government oversight of the public universities to ensure they aren't doing this.......that's the plan anyways. "Here's a few billion, PA, now dont raise rates or else." That's what they are going for. In a vacuum though, he's right but this wouldn't be that vacuum, at least that's not the plan.

I don't disagree.
 
I didn't misleadingly cite anything. I posted the direct quote from Cuban regarding his belief that Republican leadership is lacking. I also attached the actual citation so that you could reference the article.

His assumption is that college tuition subsidization will not have any strings attached, which is untrue according to the plan itself.

See how that works, you refute his message, not attack the messenger as being misleading for not posting an ancillary statement.

Hey, that's a first. You didn't call me dumb! In other words, you didn't resort to your normal ploy of "attacking te messenger".
