Bridgepoint: Bad for Students, Good for Gamblers?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. My stats are from the federal government your are from fantastical ideas that make you sound like you know what you are talking about. ALLLLLLLLLLL schools are ripping off students man. No education is worth that much!!! Did you not read the words "All I am saying is that there is no difference". You really WANT me to be a puppet but I have news, you are the one that sounds like a puppet. And I should rephrase my statement earlier because you are right. I do not think that Bridgepoint is a good example of capitalism... what I mean to say is that it is the consequence of capitalism. I do not agree with Enron or others of the like but I do like capitalism and unfortunatly some companies take it to the extreme. In saying that, I will take free market/capitalism and bridgepoint any day over whatever system you abide by. THAT is why it is a perfect example.— February 23, 2011 10:19 a.m.

We the tax payers actually pay for people in non-profit state schools through BOTH student loans and subsidizes. All I am saying is that there is no difference. Well... there is one difference Bridgepoint employs like 5,000 people (third in San Diego)... but who is counting. And I did not even mention capitalism in my post. If you are speaking in reference to my name then that is simply because I think people should have the choice to make money... even Bridgepoint. And in your opinion what is a good example? Let me guess, do you think the government is a good example of capitalism in action? Taking lots of money and giving to pork spending accounts and false pension plans? Bridgepoint is a perfect example of capitalism, even though that was not my point.— February 18, 2011 4:07 p.m.

Yea a sock puppet said F the Department of Education... Once again you did not respond to what I said just try and cut me down. Even if I was a puppet I am still right.— February 18, 2011 3:50 p.m.

You obviously do not know any of the facts. Lets talk numbers... so you think that the tuition cost of Ashford (about 11,000) per year is 4x greater then say Colorado State? That would mean the cost of Colorado State is 2,750 per year WITHOUT subsidizes? The truth is that an out of state student pays 14,000 per year WITH subsidizes (collegesource.org). So here is the truth... you are wrong and you have no idea what you are talking about.— February 18, 2011 11:20 a.m.

I love people like you... miss the whole point of the post because I messed up one thing. Actually, I am an officer and civil engineer for the U.S. NAVY I have an architecture degree which is something Bridgepoint probably does not offer. You mistake my caring about people writing, in my opinion, misleading articles for caring about Bridgepoint. Three people "commented" on what I said without actually commenting on what I said... YOU'RE part of that awesome club. Why don't you respond now or did I spell something wrong?— February 18, 2011 8:31 a.m.

Every non-profit school gets tax payers dollars in the form of subsidizes... how is that any different considering that it costs more to go to a state school if you take away the subsidizes?— February 17, 2011 2:06 p.m.

F the Department of Education... your just pissed because all your non-profit schools (like state schools) dont get all the government help they used to. Here is the logic: because Bridgepoint makes lots of money and the students dont always go through the program we should be pissed and cry. Has the writer of this article ever been to Community College where a class goes from 45 students to 25 in two weeks of classes? "Well.. yes but Community College is less money and so it does not cost the student a default status" -- EXCEPT THAT THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE IS SUBSIDIZED BY THE GOVERNEMNT WITH TAX PAYERS DOLLARS! Pick your poison! Dont cry just cause someone can make a buck and actually help people get an education at the same time.— February 17, 2011 1:33 p.m.
