- Colleges get massive subsidies and tax breaks. They get rich. Taxpayers and many students are hurt.

Yale University's dining halls don’t have to pay any property tax.
That's unfair to surrounding restaurants, who do have to pay.
Yale does well with its tax breaks. It has a $31 billion endowment. Harvard has $40 billion.
Yet we taxpayers keep giving them more.
In addition to the tax breaks, the US gives colleges cash grants and guarantees more than $1 trillion in student loans. It's how colleges have gotten away with jacking up tuition at 4 times the rate of inflation.
This hurts both taxpayers and many students. Today, almost half don’t graduate in six years.
Students end up with "$80,000 in debt, without a degree to show for it,” says Inez Stepman, an education policy researcher at the Independent Women's Forum.
Colleges say they deserve every break because they’re making wiser citizens. But Stepman says, "They're not making wiser citizens. They're making citizens who hate their country."
I push back: "Most colleges educate ... rather than indoctrinate."
"I wish that were true," she replies. "I was part of the College Republicans, so we were registering voters ... I actually had a professor walk up and spit on me. We had another professor call us the Nazi Youth."
Taxpayers shouldn't subsidize that.
"they're not making wiser citizens they're making citizens who hate their country"
wise words
Well when everyone is equal in their utopia, will see how they like it when it is their turn to pick up garbage for the month.
With close to 90% of college professors being leftist in their worldview, it’s no wonder that all these entitled snowflake communist/socialist loving students come out of these “higher learning “ institutions with ass backwards views. 💯
Maybe that is wise
It's almost as if higher education teaches critical thinking, which gives students the tools to see through the harmful myths that governments perpetuate

For the survival of the Republic: the college grift has got to end.

For the survival of the republic, we need to start taxes the con schools (churches).
@@asadmahdi92 Taxes kill the republic.
They want to forgive the student debt too. Everything is free, as long as the taxpayer keeps paying?
“The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.” MT
It's robbery of the tax payers.
Wait until the students who want their college to be free discover that THEY will be paying for every graduating class from now on.
They say we should embrace free market capitalism. When the rich do well everybody does well. It's a trickle-down economy. But it's really a siphon-up economy. Who's doing all the hard work and still have to pay tax? Even many of the people developing the new tech (inventors, engineers, programmers, scientists...) don't get paid that well and could be struggling. Then they say we are all still doing better than we would be without the super rich individuals and corporations. I have a feeling we are fed lies. What do you think?
@@dadt8009 what we have now is not capitalism, but sudo, crony capitalism where the government. Is involved in every aspect of business as a middle man. If it was a true open, free market, people would vote with their wallets, and prices would be driven down, because now companies can’t buy off political allies to siphon off tax payers money. Hell, there shouldn’t even be income tax
When I was in college I had to study. There was no time for golf, rock climbing, or crying in a closet.
This. Precisely.

The ones in STEM rarely used those amenities.
It looks like a summer camp but if you were in a hard major it was extremely stressful and NOT fun.
I basically had no life in college because of how hard it was, I didn't enjoy being an adult until I had my first job.
Yeah, when I went I worked 3 PT jobs to pay for it spent most of my time on campus at the library, student union, or class. I slept in my car on occasion.
was your tuition nearly 4 times the rate of inflation?
@@jacobjohnson2714 yep, feeling that now as a CS major. All those fun things are enjoyed by the other majors to keep them distracted from the fact that they are being leeched off of by the college.

which made her unmaking all the sweeter.
Just to be fair, that scene was not at Yale. That was at the University of Missouri. Same problem, but we should always be as accurate as possible.

If you go to yale because of a pizza oven u dont deserve a college degree
I know right?
if they want a pizza oven just spend 200-500 bucks, its much cheaper then spending 55k a year in college fees
In their defense they probably werent ever gonna get a degree
It's to distract them from the shit show they're gonna have to deal with when the college experience is over.
a pizza over? wtf does that even cost? I'm sure they contracted it out to the deens friend for $250,000. for some fire bricks, insultation and some concrete.

When the higest payed person in a institut of learning is a football coach you know everything is lost.
He probably brings more to the university's than all of the "professors" combined.
@@matthewmarch8707 …that’s bs! Colleges weren’t meant to be sports revenues!…
The football coaches salary isn't subsidized by taxpayers. Football programs earn their own money through merchandise, ticket sales, and huge TV contracts. Football pays for almost every other sport at most colleges.
False. Most universities operate their sports program as a separate for profit corporation. The university pays the program, grants scholarships, etc. But the sports program keeps 100% of their profits.
@@KevinJDildonik that's even worse than I thought.
When you reward failure, you get lots MORE of it.
Freeing the slaves was rewarding failure.
@@hixidom2274 And look how much more of it we got.
They're not rewarding failure, those students pay for it in the end.
They're rewarding FRAUD.
Just like when you reward dumber students by admitting them to a college for smart people because they are a part of a minority.
In the case of free college, even $300 Billion isn't that bad compared to Trump constantly giving breaks for the rich. My issue is that 1) the saturation of college degrees will downgrade the degree's relevance, and 2) the country won't get any smarter since colleges will probably lower the curriculum standards to retain as many of those new students as they can, because each student is revenue to them.

If it makes you feel any better ur money ultimately ends up in the pockets of the board members and top level admin of these "non-profit" institutions and not the future protesters education.
So what’s the answer here?
Just to abolish any government funded education?
Or do what other countries do and actually help their people?
@@kylethedalek what you would do is only give money to colleges that agree to a set of terms that would limit tuition hikes and frivolous spending of said tax money. Right now the government is just shoveling basically free money at colleges and telling them that if they want more they can just raise tuition and it will be covered by govt loans. Im pretty sure other countries have alot more say over the actions of the institutions receiving public funds.
to be honest but those are the 50% dropouts, lol
Why does everything “free” always come with a price tag?
Free mean someone had to supporting it.. they losing the point of public spending that for citizen to had job and become debting the citizen and when that happen it no longer their problem.. since they would be out of power.. and fatting themselves doing favour for the rich..
Very true
@@campkira you should take some more English classes. You’re doing okay!
If you say free to a poor person it has a different meaning when you say it to a rich person
'Free' just means someone else pays
That dining-hall reminded me of Hogwart's.
It's cool but not cool enough to deserve subsidies.
@@justiceprovider9822 NOTHING is cool enough to deserve subsidies.
They should be for poor people, nothing more.
The dining hall at my college reminded me of Full Metal Jacket though I doubt it would have passed Gunny Hartman's inspection.
Strangely, despite the lack of pizza ovens and climbing walls we all seemed to emerge with better educations.

This is not a republican or democrat issue, it's the whole system that sucks.
@Hydin Biden tbf even if people who vote democrat want something else they don't have many choices. Blaming democrats or republicans doesn't let people see that it's the whole system working against you.
@Hydin Biden @Hydin Biden my bad, I haven't explained myself correctly (I'm not a native English speaker as you can probably see). I agree with you that those politicians suck but I don't think they are the root of the problem. The real problem is the system that makes you have this politicians (electoral college, 2 party system, gerrymandering and overall lack of democracy).
How you solve universities is up to the people to decide, the problem right now is that the people don't get to decide. Even if you did have politicians solving the issue nothing guarantees you that they won't fuck something else.
Both parties have been in power numerous times, and neither has fixed the problem, nor they fixed any other problem I know of. If the same method hasn't worked in the past, it's unlikely it will work in the future. Perhaps we need a new system, or no system at all.
Reps and dems are to blame! This is why voting is a joke!
It's a system meant to keep the masses dumb, confused and distracted by manipulating us to go to war with eachother while they loot the vast collective wealth we generate.

The rich people buy off the government through lobbying and they give them tax cuts. They have accountants who can find them deductions so they can pay lower taxes.
@@giantsr1eva libertarians and conservatives in general just want government to decrease taxes for everyone and leave the people alone. That way there is more freedom and liberty for all. The more things gov starts providing for you, the more things they can take away from you.
"The cost of free college would be twice as much."
That thinking only makes "sense" to a Democrat or Liberal. The rest of us understand how money works.
I miss when I was in middle school everyone pressured me and put in my head that as a student, I HAD to go to college and get a degree and become 60k in debt and pay it for the rest of my life, I’m now enrolled to a 2 year community college that’s free for me and couldn’t be happier
4 year colleges for associates degrees are massive wastes of money, get your associates at community college, and you can go to a university for a Bachelors, or further if you want.
my old boss had a masters, but his boss had that old secretary school diploma. guess which one made more money? seems that when the genius graduated high school and worked part time jobs to pay for university, the young lady graduated high school did a two month secretary class, and got a job right away. by the time the dude was finishing his masters, she was already there at work 7 years and so had seniority and a well paying job. he had to start at the bottom.

@@MikhaelAhava But he was always an un-apologetic true investigative journalist, no matter where he worked, which is ever how he ended up thinking the way he does.
On this issue he's correct, but he's completely lost when he wants to legalize monopolies and hard drugs. He also advocates for tax cuts for the rich.
@KingJustice98 I don’t think he wants to legalise monopolies, cause that’s the opposite to competition, which is necessary for the free market. Also not really tax cuts, but more of taxes in general, like there has to be some, but not like 90% in the past wherein the rich basically found loopholes and paid less meanwhile the middle class had to be burden. Also hard drugs? Portugal did something and their drug problem decreased because they treat it as a health issue rather than crime. Though other countries like Singapore has death penalty on drugs but do fine.
What I think where he’s lost is on prostitution. Horny guys really? That’s gonna bring STDs, the workers can be tested but the clients might not be. Plus it would really spread.
When I was in college in the 80s, you had to suppress your tears until you got back to your dorm or apartment (or drown them at the bar). Kids today are worthless and weak!

@@masondickerson9466 LOL
Every semester I would get a piece of paper telling me how much of a loan I could take out. It was always far larger than I needed. I would get enough for books, rent and tuition. I worked outside of class to makeup the difference. There's a reason why my loans are significantly smaller than my classmates.
The university i went to has been in a constant state of construction since I've moved to the area about 11 years ago. In that time they have raised tuition several times and are always lobbying the board of regents for more money. To say they spend irresponsibly is an understatement.
I had a roommate that would “get money back” from student loans and go to the bars to spend it.
As a mechanic that pays extremely high taxes (flagging over 100 hours a week), this is pretty goddamn frustrating.
So, you have only 68/week to yourself? Barely 9 hours a day to sleep, eat, bathe, etc.?
Unless you have weekends off, leaving you only 4 hours per day to sleep, eat, bathe, etc.
Lol I just do it for cash now, much easier to actually make money.
@@ericredbear425 running a business is a 24hour a day kind of job.
@@ericredbear425 I'm a book hour mechanic. I don't get paid for every hour I'm at work, I get paid for ever hour worth of work I can complete while I'm at the shop.

I only technically work 60 hours a week but I usually complete 85 to 115 hours worth of work in that time and I get taxed based on my book/flag hours. It's kinda hard to explain in text but I hope that makes sense.

The amount of "smug" in that cafeteria was "over 9000"

Considering what they're teaching the kids, they probably SHOULD be defunded.
The people who say, "We need free college for everybody," should be forced to watch this video.
They use the myth that the reason people either never go to college or drop out without graduating is because "they can't afford the tuition." There are so many other reasons. In my case my health failed and I could no longer do the coursework. My cousin wanted to be a photographer and didn't care about anything else, so he works at Target while he's building a portfolio. There's a range of reasons, from deaths in families, to having to assist with household expenses, to just a lack of desire or picking a career path that doesn't require college. Those who leave may find that it's not for them, whether they don't enjoy the experience or they can't maintain the grades to stay on school. The price of tuition is a factor for some, but availability of loans means most students don't even know what the tuition is that they're paying, let alone consider it as a factor for going/continuing. Under a "government picks up the tab for tuition" plan, all those people who couldn't or didn't go, or didn't graduate, are paying for everyone else to do so. Politicians make it sound so good and reasonable, "education is so vital, why shouldn't we cover the cost of higher education like we do for k-12?" They never discuss the brass tacks of it, or what it will do if it functioned perfectly and almost everyone went and graduated. Being a high school graduate used to be meaningful, and opened up career paths, because the percentage of teens graduating was low. Now it's extremely high, so it's expected that everyone has graduated, and anyone who hasn't or who took the GED are looked down on by employers. The shift will happen with a bachelors degree if the percentage of graduates gets high enough, like high school today. And once it does, the politicians will talk about how important it is to go to graduate school, and how taxes should be covering that cost as well.
This is a major problem and college is still not free 🤔
Also, we’ve had free college in the past and this wasn’t a problem either.
*ahem* Joe Rogan. There’s a lot of stuff he says I disagree with but when he says college should be free I usually have to stop whatever that podcast is. If you think college is expensive now, just wait until it’s “free!”
They should be forced to actually speak to the freshmen at their local university and see just how many are just there to get drunk and flunk out their first semester. There’s a reason that about half of the students with student loans don’t graduate. A lot of flunkies are also already on Pel Grants and so on, but I guess we need to throw more money at them to squander.
Also of note is why should I have to pay for someone to get a degree in something like English when they’ll likely never use it? If you want to spend your time and money getting one just to have one, good on you, but why should I pay for it?
Sadly those people will still believe what they want to believe. :/
The area directly surrounding Yale is an absolute dump. I can’t imagine why
Property taxes are insane
The first block or two are little hip college restaurants, coffee shops, and bars... everything beyond that is the “hood”. Yale has gates you need to swipe in with your college ID so there’s no way anyone who’s not a student can get on campus

"Every hole has its own personality..." why am I cracked up on this?
It is kind of sad that they get the most tax breaks and yet burden the students with extraordinary fees.
When I went to community college, it was obvious that at least 60% of the people in the classroom had no idea what was going on, and didn’t belong there.. It’s ludicrous to think that everyone should go to college. Any forgiveness of the huge student loan debt must come from the universities who benefited from the loans, not from the taxpayers. Thank you for your work, Mr. Stossel.

Just get rid of their special tax exemptions and many things will be righted within a decade.

Yes. That is disgusting about being forced to take online classes. Part of your tuition and fees go to stuff you can't access. If you can't access it, why should you pay for it? What a scam online classes have become.

Probably the biggest scam in the history of mankind.
For some career fields, you need a college education to learn everything required for the career.
I would say the biggest scam is printing paper "money" and then lending it to government at interest - the federal reserve system. They don't print the "money" needed to pay the interest. Politicians don't care - they aren't the ones on the hook for paying it back. They just tax the sh1t out of the public.

Good for you! I'll take working smart over working hard any day of the year.

maybe instead of turning the school into a damned amusement park or vacations resort- they should strip down, remove all those distractions and focus on LEARNING!
The professor looking for 'muscle' to get rid of the REPORTER was a JOURNALISM teacher. It happened at MU.
lol isn't that ironic
She was a communication professor, which is in a separate college at MU since the J-School is very selective, and she was fired following the usual bureaucracy laden investigation.
@@acdvfb it more like she just want to vent..
CMDR Gonzo von Richthofen the muscle should be used to throw her off campus! These people are evil

Great video! When it comes to journalism Stossel is a dying breed.
Get rid of the tax exempt status for All colleges and Defund this insanity !!!!!!😢😮
Yale? More like Bail.
AND it’s a super expensive university too. Figures.
Jeff Bowles has now established himself as the authority on Vitamin D3. This seminal update to his previous work now includes thousands of hours of research on so many aspects that can affect D3. Like many other studies on diseases, the further you get from the equator the more deficiency manifests itself. In this book, the author includes examples from people who have written to him after they read his first book and were helped by trying high-dose D3 - even with diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis. He shows how every possible health condition is helped by Vitamin-D3 supplementation. He also includes an historical example from the 1920s when large numbers of people first started taking D3. The hospitals were virtually empty; it seemed as though nobody was getting sick anymore! The hospitals were literally about to go bankrupt along with the doctors and drug companies. So, how did this scenario change? First, the scientists and drug companies were telling us in the 1930s that any
amount of Vitamin D over 400 IUs may be toxic! Then, the drug industry created brand names for certain drugs that actually had 50,000 IUs of D3 in them. Then, bill after bill and law after law have been proposed over the years to prevent the sale of higher-dose Vitamin-D3 pills and to reclassify vitamins as drugs. The author gives examples clear up to the present time of all of the regulations and laws. He even mentions Codex Alimentarius but fails to mention NHF’s battle at the Codex Committee on Nutrition meetings they attend each year, fighting to increase the strength of D3. He also tells the story of how in the 1960s, he and his sister sunbathed with a mercuryvapor lamp to give them good health; but by the 1980s UV lamps were given the reputation of “quack” medical devices. I had the same experience when young. [which, using a UV lamp or mercury vapor lamp?] Now, since the 1980s, there has been an explosion of every disease known to man and we have also had a huge toxic load added into the mix with all of the toxins in our food. Vitamin D3 is actually a steroid hormone that controls or affects at least 2,700 genes. These genes are involved in immune-system regulation and tissue remodeling. I can attest to the bone remodeling. Since I have used high-dose D3 with Vitamin K2, my old bone injuries from the past have started to hurt again (evidence of bone remodeling) until I reduced the D3 dose and slowly moved it up again. My hip pointer from a skiing accident 30 years ago healed; my toes, which were crushed by a huge rock that I had dropped on them 40 years ago healed; my knees healed from a torn cartilage basketball injury that occurred over 50 years ago. You have to be aware what is happening with high-dose D3 supplementation because when it starts to hurt you may think you have a new injury when in fact the D3 is remodeling injured areas. Instead of continually getting worse, the Dupuytren’s contracture in my left hand from playing hand ball 50 years ago is almost gone and it does not bother me anymore. All of this from simple Vitamin D3 (combined with Vitamin K2), which tells the bone where to load. Jeff’s summary of what doctors and most mainstream Vitamin-D researchers do not know about Vitamin D3 is priceless and sums up what we need to know: • They all believe low doses of Vitamin D3 are high, “dangerous” doses. For example, many doctors believe that 2,000-10,000 IUs of D3 are high doses bordering on dangerous, yet the average adult sunbathing in the Summer in Finland, a very northerly location with weak Sun, for one half hour can make 20,000 IUs of D3 in their skin. • They do not know that higher doses of Vitamin D3 will rapidly exhaust a person’s magnesium stores and that magnesium supplementation with high-dose D3 is a must. • They do not know that we need extra Vitamin K2 to move calcium into the bones that is released with the higher dose of Vitamin D3. • According to the author, we should take at least 10,000 IUs of Vitamin D3 per day, which is the same amount one would get by Summer sunbathing for 15 minutes. Another key point is brought out by an observation of Dr. Harald Schelle of Germany in his book on how to cure glaucoma with high-dose D3. He observed that the current reference range in the U.S. for “normal” levels of blood-Vitamin D3 is 30-100 ng/ml. But, where does this range come from? It is just the results of sampling blood from a population of, for the most part, Vitamin-D3 deficient people who live in the North far away from the equator. The current range reflects the range of D3 levels of a Vitamin-D3 deficient population. Doctors assume that the average person in this group has plenty of Vitamin D3, but this is incorrect. For example, a Summer lifeguard in Florida often has blood levels of 125 ng/ml. But, he or she achieves these blood levels by sitting in relatively weak Sun (compared to the equatorial Sun) usually under an umbrella wearing a hat and sporting zinc oxide on their nose. If you went to the doctor and he or she saw your blood level of D3 was 125 ng/ml, the doctor might have a fit and tell you to stop all D3 intake and look for signs of toxicity! This is ridiculous. I had this exact thing happen to me when I first started taking high-dose D3. When my blood tests came back, the doctor was emphatic that I cut back since my levels “were way too high.” The other new thing that Jeff Bowles updates us on is the use of the mineral Boron. He found that at least 6 mg of Boron a day was also very helpful for bone issues. He himself takes 60 mg twice a day. He has also found that additional zinc and Vitamin A are also useful.

Thanks John, for all that you do!
Some get their education without going to college and the rest get it when they get out of college.
Hear, hear!
Im a simple man. I see a John Stossel video, I click it.
He could release 20 a day and I'd watch every single one.
@@watchandjewelryloft4713 seriously. im addicted

I don’t have an issue with public universities getting tax exempt status so long as they get ran like a charity. But come on, Yale is a private college. Outrageous!!!
I had a good friend, who went to Yale. He showed me around campus. I found it creepy. He became internationally, famous, but he’s dead. Now I’m still here.
"They're making citizens that hate their country" Truer words have never been spoken.
@Shadow Oxide amen to that. Hopefully next time they realize how stupid universal suffrage was and never do that again.

@@jakeblock6768 lol. So you want to not count legal votes. Losers.
@@CliqueOverAnything we want legal votes. There are millions of fraud votes that need to be thrown out.
@@jakeblock6768 where is the proof? Are states not allowed to dictate their own mail in policies? Isnt that what federalism is for. If a state says that something can be post marked and still counted, it will be counted. Saying its fraud doesn't make it so. Even fox hasn't reported on any fraud.
Im a republican now myself but whats the appeal of trump .I cant stand him. Unstable. How many ppl has he fired or have left him? Isn't that a red flag that he has poor management skills and has ppl who are either not qualified for position or dont have his trust? Come on now. Republican 2024. Ill take a moderate biden over trump any day. Plus we may have the Senate which makes certain policies harder to get thru.
@@CliqueOverAnything you will see. The fraud is massive and when it's all revealed, the salt from the left will be higher than ever before
I’ve been out of college a year. Working a contract job and living with my parents. I majored in communications which only seemed to have prepared me for entry level admin jobs that pay very little. I feel like I have no one to blame but myself. Why did my parents just expect me to go to college? They even picked my major for me. Think for yourselves. If your parents pressure you to go to college, please question them.
Professors spit on me....lights out forever

The madlad
This is why I sub to you to Tran you have good taste in your topic choices most of the time 😊
me: goes to a private university using government loans
also me: abolish student loans
Same for me. But it's worst to just deny it
Your part of the problem
This the loan that doesn't go away. Bankruptcy still need to pay. They can garnish your wages and your tax returns. Have fun.
Meanwhile, the responsible among us worked hard enough to receive scholarships or paid back our student loans as quickly as we could...When the responsible and honest are made into suckers, the system has become corrupt. This "abolish student loans" mindset is incentivizing lazy, selfish, and irresponsible child-like behavior.
@@JB-vt5sz Why? Play the game to change the game! If there's a shitty system in place, use it to your advantage if you want to thrive! I'm against stimulus checks but I'm sure as hell going to accept them because otherwise I'll be at a disadvantage compared to my competition. I guess it's because I value actions and consequences more than virtues and vices.
My wife grew up in New Haven. The city is a dump outside of the campus.
John Stossel is a national treasure!
I've been watching John Stossel since the late '90s when I was a kid, and always enjoyed his reports. So glad he has this channel so I can continue to see what he has to say.
I ask my friends if they know John Stossel and they say no! He’s a famous journalist!
Academia in the USA needs a complete revitalization
I have felt that way for years about these places.
It is obscene that they don't pay any tax.
Stossel, you're the last legitimate reporter still telling the story how it is. Keep doing what you're doing 👍
Notice despite the subsidies and tax breaks, tuition and expenses don’t get any cheaper.
And people demand government subsidized health insurance 🤔
Education shouldn't be free. I spent 4 years of my life giving to my country! Then, I used the GI bill after I was discharged from the military to work on my Electrical Engineering degree.
I love your videos, Mr. Stossel. Please keep it up, the world need more content like this
