In reading Brent Harold’s March 26 commentary, "Free college for all a simple democratic realism," I was struck by two things.

First was his statement that only decades after leaving college did he become aware of an unlevel playing field for college admissions.

Second was the thrust of his commentary, free college for all. Nowhere in his simplistic commentary was an indication given of how the-six figure salaries of esteemed nitwits like Robert Reich, Christine Blasey Ford, Cornel West, Henry Gates - and, of course, our beloved Senator Warren - are to be subsidized. Does the country need another Cabinet-level position overseeing an undergraduate educational system whose main purpose is preparing “entitled youth” in courses where inanity, meaningless drivel and how to feel good about themselves is the end game? And, by the way, all at taxpayers' expense!

That appears to be Harold's definition of why “our democratic government was founded.” What a pile o' stuff!
