Think about that phrase: “President Obama’s American Opportunity Tax Credit”. Where does that money come from? Is it President Obama’s? It’s the taxpaying American’s money, that’s a) being redistributed; b) that’s being attributed to President Obama, and the Federal government. “Julia” is being conditioned that, from birth to death, from cradle to grave, she needs to rely on the Federal government. She’s “entitled” to it, even though she’s done nothing to earn that $10,000. And in case you haven’t been paying attention: we don’t have the money. The national debt is now at 15 Trillion, 709 million dollars.
