The best part for Chicago is that installing the giant gold pigs only requires closing down two neighborhood schools in black areas. It's a bargain.

Stale Saltines posted:Also reminder that they don't pay taxes on this. They are, Yale is like this, too. Both are massive, pay almost no taxes, own large amounts of property and control the local economies without contributing. Also note that the areas around these illustrious super rich universities are some of the poorest in the country. So they use the local services like fire/police and pay almost nothing for this. gently caress Ivy League.

Do they pay the equivalent of capital gains? I know this basic situation is pretty much why the Texas college system is the way it is (and why it's pretty hosed as a result), but I wonder how you fix it without loving students any more than they already get by mortgaging their future for a receipt.

Remember that safety pin box? https://twitter.com/lhfang/status/806241671776088064 Turns out that Lee Fang of the Intercept is a race traitor for saying "Maybe giving $1,200 a year to some hucksters is a bad idea". Gotta love the cesspool that is #woke twitter.

Vox Nihili posted:Is this chart propounding the argument that tuition paid to private colleges should be taxed? That seems to be the argument this is making. Please tell me that's not it. The argument is that they invest billions, don't pay capital gains, since they're a not for profit, then reinvest that to make even more, while stiffing their employees. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/10/12/us/harvards-cafeteria-workers-strike.html Tuition doesn't matter to the bottom line of harvard/mit/stanford/etc, at least not compared to their investment activity, or their research grants.

I saw this on twitter yesterday and figured it had to be a parody account (a la "Smash Mouth eat the eggs" bullshit) because what on earth does the band Smash Mouth have to do with a pearl harbor memorial? even if someone in the band had a grand-dad who served in WW2 or something, why on earth was this the best way to show support? the mind boggles

It's been a crazy year and I was looking forward to being stationed in Hawaii, to catch some waves, drink some brews, and catch some unpronounceable venereal diseases from the local ladies. I guess Hirohito had other plans. I hate Tuesdays. *clinging to a floating bit of debris, mug to camera, freeze frame, cue music* some BODY once told me

New Haven is a shithole and walk two blocks from Columbia's campus and you're in the hood.

Richard Wolff had some extremely good things to say about private Universities in the USA and how even with the "PILOT" (payment in lieu of taxes) program they pay a fraction of a fraction of what they should be. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lv0fEMAQrc This is how you know identity politics being pushed by the hedge fund managers and spoilt rich students at these colleges is intended to divide and quell class anger over inequality.
