Full Episode
Student loan forgiveness, are you for that? No, absolutely not.
No. Let me give you the reason why. Number one, I didn't go to college and I've succeeded. So why should my taxpayer dollars go for pay for somebody else's mistakes? Number two, let's look at all the amazing people that are plumbers, electricians, welders, police officers that didn't go to college. So they have to pay more taxes to go pay for somebody that did go to college.
That's morally indefensible. What about kids that went to different schools to try to graduate with less debt? Are we punishing their good decisions? So no. All right, guys. We are at AmFest here with the man himself, Charlie Kirk. Thanks for coming on, man. Great to have you, man. I've been trying to make this work for a while, so thank you.
I mean, you've been the busiest man on the planet lately. Dude, thanks for having me. It's my first AmFest. We'll have you back anytime. Yeah, it's been incredible. Thank you. Obviously, your take on college, it's a scam. I want to take it one step further. Sure. Do you believe the Department of Education is a scam? Yes, it should be eliminated. Absolutely. Why do you feel that way?
Well, first of all, constitutionally, I'm not certain that it's even consistent with the constitutional intent that the federal government should have a role in education. Number two, ever since the formation of the Department of Education, it used to be called Health, Education, and Welfare, HEW. Test scores have gone down. Our schools are a disaster. Education is the most personal thing.
It's the development of the soul. It's the development of the character of an individual. And the federal government has failed miserably in the education of our children. We rank like 36 of industrialized countries when it comes to education. We are significantly behind many of our competitors. We need to send all the education back to the states and local municipalities.
What do you think parents watching this should do? Something actionable. Well, again, I understand that everyone has different financial pressures and sensitivities. But if you're able to do it, homeschool your kids. Take your kids out of the public education system, out of the government education system, and educate them yourself. Absolutely.
Are you pro-crypto? I've never seen you talk about crypto.
Very pro-crypto. You got some Bitcoin? I actually have better stuff than that. I am a significant investor in the plumbing of how crypto is made. Really? So I won't say any more than that. But done some good private equity deals in the actual back end on the technology of actually blockchain on how all these coins go public. Now, not Bitcoin itself, but of all the other types of coins.
