nice deal if you can get it and you can get it in places like cuba and zimbabwe. soros doesn't want socialism. he is the biggest capitalist on the planet. he wants power and the groups are using the far left zealots to try to achieve that. these people are not asking for voluntary h help. they want to take stuff by force if necessary. it is true the far left is very disappointed with president obama because he has not been radical enough. mr. obama rightly knows the vast majority of americans do not want socialism and while some of his programs are designed to redistribute income the president knows he would be doomed if he through in with the hardcore radicals. in the end the protesters don't mean very much. america is a great country. if you want to be a far left zealot you can be. just don't hurt anybody. the pro he tests remind me of the late 1960s when the power to the people movement was at its apex. eventually many of the woodstock protesters turned into ardent capitalists. just ask anybody on wall street. that is the memo. now, for the top story tonight. f

i look at a country like cuba, which is supposed to be such a bad country, but the education they areering -- how could a country like ours that is supposed to be such a great country have such a huge cost of educating citizens? when the corporations take over, everything is controlled by corporates. guest: there is a low-cost option for students. community colleges are only around $3,000. even with the higher prices of public colleges and private colleges, those are sticker prices, and most students do not pay the sticker price peer the fact of the matter is most students do get some sort aid if they qualify. a new requirement that congress put in place recently is that all colleges have to have these net price calculators. you can go online and get an estimate of how much this college would actually cost you with your financial situation. host: data according to the "wall street journal," outstanding student loans total about $829 billion. federal loans, $605 billion. private loans, $167 billion. $360 billion in federal student debt incurred over the last few years. >> it has been a
