Hey california has a super progressive college system. instate tuition at community college 90% paid by the state? Thats like the most based social service in this country. It allowed a poor kid from the midwest like me to pay for college while working at the college.
We can be good, but we have a lot of poverty testing that prohibits others from that same system.
It is generous, and I hope we can keep it that way, but it also is means tested and often sucks people out of higher education. I’m personally a victim of that, with my local community college.
I am however thankful you got something good, and I wish more people could have it.
I went off to college back in the great recession so it really was like the best option i could find. The experience really shaped me as a person and im so greatful i didn’t lose my chance at education to poverty in a recession.
I’m sorry to hear they prevented you from that program. No system is without need for reform. Hopefully they can continue to improve the system and make it more inclusive.
I fucking hate my state for this shit. Acts like we’re better than Texas or Florida but still is proudly bigoted and hates the poor.
