“The yacht was very important for research”

Damn private colleges, why in the world do private institutions get tax money
Comment from : @deanholderde5959

the only institution that gets to embezzle tax dollars is the government itself

Why in the holy fuck did no one go to prison

Shocker
Comment from : @Sauce1801

What was that yacht used for? Was that boat for marine biology research? Was funding for Paris meant for research delegation, and does redecorating is another term for Lab equipment People, don't just assume everything anybody starts saying We are becoming like Europe Your Congress is not doing good job, if a university can get away with what you are saying Hence ask congress, and people who elect them! Ask congress to reaudit the claims this person is makingNot that tough (And don't name yourself reason tv, well atmost that you could create was a reasonable doubt at best)

They were choirboys compared to their current antics Better fund a yacht than terrorists
Comment from : @diatonicdelirium1743

Meanwhile the PhD students who do the actual research work l, have to pay tuition
Comment from : @harenterberge2632

And how many more do it? How many of the actual government agencies do it? I’d bet money it would be harder to find ones who don’t, than ones that do

Typical republican website
Comment from : @RaymondMoy-y7h

You are being sillybr Federally they give this money to colleges to make legal claim to research Wouldn't want a school to discover nuclear fission and not have any legal right to say they must share it with you since you helped pay for it Just because someone chooses to break the law doesn't mean the entire society should grunt the burden and suffer It's the same logic as gun control oh no 1 bad guy did 1 bad thing now nobody is allowed to protect themselves anymore in case other bad people decide to do it because that maths out

To be fair, it is very hard to research How rich it makes you feel sailing on a yacht without buying a yacht

They got so full of themselvestheir greed has been made obvious and no longer quality Stanford in particular has become ghastly inhumane, perversely cruel, unimaginabley insanely poor quality
Comment from : @jennifermoore2041

So after that, they took advantage of the government guaranteeing student loans by increasing the cost of further education over time
Comment from : @PlasmaMongoose

But if you're not doing research on a yacht how can you find out what it's going to take to discover the relationship between tequila and how fast bikinis can hit the deck And necessary bit of knowledge for the betterment of our society LolbrbrOrbrbrTo fund that dark money high energy research in the linear accelerator

Comment from : @jstenberg3192

These aren't universities They are hedge funds that offer classes
Comment from : @karnubawax

A million dollars? Sounds like it's cheaper to pay the fine and continue business as usual These schools get hundreds of millions of dollars every year
Comment from : @fer78130

Someone said college is the most cruel joke on the poor and middle class, chunning out unemployed debters in the millions every year around the world I believe this more and more each day that passes now that i am an unemployed debter with fancy papers

Comment from : @levvayner4509

When no one ever sees prison for their corruption, what do you expect
Comment from : @thetayz72

We want you to pay us back the money you embezzledbrbrOk, so do we just wait for you to earmark a wasteful study to get the money back or is this all just ceremony and no money changes hands?
Comment from : @SadSackGaming

But the teachers are all about the children !
Comment from : @richgee4173

Kind of misleading to say they used the money to buy a yacht 1mil is a lot in normal people money, but for organizations this large, it's a drop in the bucket Not even really worth making a video about
Comment from : @derrekgillespie413

Comment from : @seaofglass77

There was no crime committed just bad optics The Federal gov doesnt look at the mis spent money as theft
Comment from : @geraldbennett7035

Lemme guess, the little money that wasnt embezzled, was used on some dipshit research in the humanities, instead of actual sciences?
Comment from : @honkhonk8009

Comment from : @kevinklemm5720

Apparently, naming the yacht "Indirect Research Costs" didn't work
Comment from : @aoksys31

That's why research costs so much at Stanford For those who don't know: all research institution need to add on indirect cost (a tax) for health care, vacations, lab space, libraries, IT, road repair, mail delivery, HR and safety personnel, etc legitimate costs are still high, say 50 of any grant, and are reviewed constantly by government agencies
