Rand Paul: Free college education is like “free heroin”

Quoted from Daily Kos (click here):

“Republican presidential candidate and legacy-based contender Rand Paul argues against free higher education for all Americans.

“The main thing I would say is that nothing’s free,” Paul said. “If someone offers you something for free, treat it as if they’re offering you heroin and think about the repercussions of what is free and what is a drug, an addicting drug like heroin and the ramifications of that. There’s nothing free. It just means somebody else is gonna pay for it, you don’t see them. So the plumber, the welder, the carpenter, the people who don’t go to college are being asked to pay for your education.”

I have nothing to say about this. Let us all just take a moment to bask in the wisdom that is Rand Paul.”
