Madness Week at College Insurrection
Your weekly dispatch from the world of higher education.
As you probably have heard, all hell broke loose on college campuses this week. It started with protests at Yale and Mizzou.
- Crowd of Yale Students Surround Professor and Accuse Him of Racism
- University of Missouri President Resigns Following Student Protest
Things went downhill from there.
- Yale Students Protest Speaker Greg Lukianoff at William F. Buckley, Jr. Talk
- Yale President Apologizes for Failing to Make Minority Students Feel Safe
- UMass Amherst Group Holds ‘Stop White People’ Multicultural Luncheon
It got a little crazy at times.
- Student Govt. at University in Minnesota Claims Remembering 9/11 Would Violate Safe Space
- University of Missouri Prof Resigns Over Outrage for Failing to Cancel Exam
- Conservative Professor Becomes Target at Vanderbilt University
Along the way, students struggled to explain their positions.
- University of Colorado Boulder Students Try to Explain Socialism
- Student Can’t Explain How to Pay for Entitlements College Protesters Are Demanding
All of this raises some legitimate questions.
- Should We Stop Paying for College?
- Imagine What The Civil Rights Movement Would’ve Looked Like With ‘Safe Spaces’
- Glenn Reynolds: College Students Are Showing We Need to Raise The Voting Age
Maybe this will help.

While I think Neil Cavuto did an outstanding job of POLITELY debunking this young idealist idiot ideas, one question I would have asked:
“So, a person is making $250k and paying 60%, they take home $100k – but at $300k would pay 90% and then take home $30k. WHY would anyone try to become successful and get up to over $300k?”
It’s as if progs are so utterly stupid they cannot learn from history.
It has been said, “The only thing we learn from history is that we learn nothing from history.”
Cavuto didn’t ask it because, unlike you, he understands what marginal rates are. If you had asked that you would have risked making an idiot of yourself — provided that the idiot student understood them herself, which I doubt. (Well, you’d still have made an idiot of yourself, but she, being the greater idiot, wouldn’t have called you on it.)
As is often the case, you are wrong, while trying to make blanket statements.
I am offended by these student actions. They should quit school and get a job (if they can hold one).
“Neil Cavuto embarrasses student….” ?
No, she did that all by herself.
This moron is Obama without the teleprompter, literally: same intelligence, same thought process.
And if you don’t think this moron — and other morons like her – are not being directed by the likes of Valerie Jarrett, you’re as deluded as this moron.
I happened to see Cavuto’s full interview with this young commie-in-diapers. It’s a difficult combination to pull off, but she managed to be simultaneously frightening and comical.
Its always fun to watch Americans pretend they are the 99%
I’d like to take the liberal’s paycheck and redistribute it to the 3rd world. Billions of people are having to get by on what amounts to a $1 a day. If Kaylee really believes in taxing the 1% into oblivion, we should start with her.
I could feed a Somali village for a year on what she spends on makeup.

This dumbbell didn’t need Cavuto to embarrass her. She did a great job of embarrassing herself and her generation. Ignorant and arrogant – just like good Hitler Young should be.
