Kline - Explained

Your taxes are paying for this!
The StarTribune reported in October 2013 that 5 students are suing the for-profit Globe University for misleading and manipulating prospective students, lying about job-placement and providing worthless diplomas.
In addition WCCO channel 4 also reported this issue and in addition charged Herzing University of similar misdeeds.
Let’s go back to see how we got to this point.
To look as if concerned with unemployment and appear favorable Congressman Kline set-up many so called "Job Fairs" in our communities.
But job seekers at the "fairs" attest that there are very few or no real jobs offered in these events!
Instead, there is a large presence of for-profit schools (Argosy, Brown College, DeVry, Empire Beauty, GlobalScholar/Scantron, Herzing U, Interstate Truck Driving, ITT Technical Institute, Rasmussen College, The Art Institutes International MN, and the University of Phoenix.)
In addition, the financial institutions are right there eager to arrange loans for prospective students.
Coincidentally, Congressmen Kline recently made student loans more profitable for these lenders, but more expensive for students with his new laws he labels: “market based solutions”.
Checking the campaign finance records we can see that these lenders and schools are Kline reelection supporters.
Kline’s "job fairs" are in fact only bait to market the for-profit schools and loans and payback for campaign contributions.
The real need for jobs and education is cynically exploited.
Taxpayers foot the bill for grants and loans, students spend costly and useless time in school but lenders and profit schools prosper from Kline’s doings.
We main street folks expect our legal system to catch up with this kind of racketeering.
However, the GOP has worked hard to reduce and under-fund any regulation or control. Consequently the legal system cannot effectively pursue and stop any white-collar grime.
In fact the GOP is against any law which would protect the public.
Kline tells us we need “small government” and “ Corporations achieve their unlimited potential unencumbered by government interference”.
We can see the results of how this works by the contaminated water in West Virginia, the fertilizer plant explosion in Texas, the poisoned peanut butter, bad hamburger meat, adulterated medicine, dubious banking practices, stock market fraud, the Exxon and BP disasters and more and more.
There is big profit in beating what Kline’s party calls “burdensome regulations” and then sticking ordinary folks with the resulting costs and bailouts.
Look at the American health care system.
The average per capita health care spending for Australia, Sweden, Belgium, France, Luxembourg, Denmark, Germany, Canada, Austria, Netherlands, Switzerland and Norway is $3,800 per year. The life expectancy for that money is 81 years average.
In the US by comparison we spend $8,200 per capita per year for health care but we live only 78 year on the average.
(The data comes from the OECD World Health Organization, World Bank)
We all understand that if anyone produces a product (health care) that is 46% more expensive and has lower performance it can not compete and its makers (us – the United States citizens) will not survive. China is already killing us in the field of commerce.
However for the last 6 years Congressmen Kline has done everything in his power to promote and keep this un-competitive hurtful way even as the existence of our country is at risk.
Why, - isn’t he working for us, - you think until you see what is behind.
The difference of what we are spending today on health care and what we could spend if we do it right like other countries is $4,400 per year per person by 300 million persons = 1.3 Trillion dollars.
1.3 trillions dollars or $4.400 a person lost, - just to make a few upper crust capitalists richer and preserve Kline’s job in politics? Quote: "Since when is making a profit a bad word in America?" is Kline’s justification for selling us out.
