Hillary has proposed giving every newborn $5000 to be held in escrow until they're 18 . Hillary asserts that this money will go for their college education . But what she doesn't tell you is that this money is not earmarked or regulated . In other words , each 18 yr. old can spend it on anything they want !!
Many people are against the idea on the grounds that they aren't willing to have their taxes go for someone elses kid to go to college . But even if you do support it on these grounds , you really need to learn what it really is .. . . .a Bank Account for cell-phones , cars , jewelry , ipods , video games , TV's , etc . I assumed that list to be true , but I decided to post a question about it in 'Polls and Surveys' to see if my assertions were correct . And below you will find a link to my question and the proof of what teenagers would spend their $5000 on .
After reading the answers. . .. . Now what do you think ?

Little red - Many liberal social programs are good in theory . See , that's the difference between a liberal and a conservative . . .. Conservatives don't hate all social programs or liberal proposals , we just know that most of them are mindless dreams without thought about the consequences .

I don't. This is one of the biggest pandering schemes that she's managed to drum up.

Not all people go to college either. It is a personal choice. Plus in 20 years when the plan would come into action tuition would have skyrocketed. It already can cost 15 to20 + G's for an Associates, and thats just the degree.

I think this $5.000 is a hoax like everything with the Clintons. If she could get away with it in the event that she would become president she would probably do it just to ensure democrat voters in 18 years from now. However, she knows very well that this crazy idea is not going to go anywhere. Conservatives oppos it and many democrats that pay taxes do as well. She is just pondering to the low class for votes.

I cannot BELIEVE the lies coming out of her mouth these days...
I guess if this was in place way back when I was a baby...I would have to give mine back seeing as I did go to a 'proper' college. Secretarial School, which I did go to, doesn't qualify as a college because there is NO degree to be had upon completion.
So where would the $5,000 go if you choose not to go to college??
And why would I have to pay (you know it's coming from taxes) for an entire generations' education...who paid for mine??

I have just whipped out my 1996, H/P model #HP10B, a calculator I have used extensively, in calculating mortgages, loans, etc., and have run these figures AND equations :
Lets say that ROUND FIGURES ONLY, there are 300,000,000 Americans, and a 1% increase in our population growth(3,000,000 babies a year). At $5000 for each baby, for the FIRST year, only : $5000, X 3,000,000 , AND put into an "Interest bearing account, i.e. Treasury bonds / US Money markets", drawing 4.5 % interest, COMES TO ::: $15,000,000,000 ( THAT'S $15 BILLION)DRAWING INTEREST ONLY!!!!! THE INTEREST ONLY - ONLY IS $56,250,000 DOLLARS, A MONTH !!!!
WHO WILL DRAW THAT INTEREST - WHO WILL GET "THAT(C.I.F.) CASH IN FIST" ???? JUST TO HAVE 4 YEARS OF THIS INTEREST ONLY- COMES TO $ 2,700,000,000 (2.7 BILLION $) !!!!
Any one wonder about her "cattle futures" trading, the "Real Estate deal, etc.???? Lobbyist political "war chest" ( TAX FREE, [FOR THE POLITICIANS]) contributions???
"There is only graft, coersion, and corruption, when money is envolved" !!!!!!!!

Oh please, talk about trying to buy a vote. Any way it's about as lame as possible, the $5,000 would mature to $12,000 at the end of the bond and the way college cost are going up that might cover the cost of the books. Just more political BS.

The only people that are stupid enough to believe this are illegal aliens and welfare recipients. The rest of us know it is just pandering for votes. The REAL citizens know if she really wants to do this, we will be taxed to pay for it.
