Lesson: The middle 2/5’s of American taxpayers are the most-burdened middle class in the history of our republic. It is nothing short of disgusting that $1 of their taxes goes to pay Harvard professors and administrators!

In April of this year, we wrote about the absurdity of tax dollars going to Columbia University. Now, you have likely read about the recent battle between the Presidential Administration and Harvard University over the allocation of federal funds (reminder, the government has no money – those are your direct dollars). Harvard University’s endowment is over $52 Billion and at a minimal 5% annual distribution rate spins off $2.5 Billion per year without ever touching the principal.

Yet, Joe the Plumber kicks in another $550 Million of taxes going to supplement Harvard’s overhead and research pet projects, like possibly gain of function – does that ring a bell? Thanks to Elon, more Americans have woken up to the outrageous projects the government, universities, and non-government agencies collude together on to burn U.S. tax dollars and pay themselves exorbitant fees. Again, why do so many public servants live on Martha’s Vineyard?

The Department of Justice, the CIA, and the FBI are all in bed with these elite universities as laundering grounds for millions of projects which would outrage the public, as well as benefit the elites who toast to the middle class’s lack of understanding – can you say Jeffrey Epstein, USAID, etc. etc.

You’ve heard of the tactics in which the more outrageous the lie, the more it will be believed. You’ve also heard the greatest political strategy is to claim your opponent is doing everything you do yourself. Harvard’s president, Alan Garber, recently wrote in response to the recent scrutiny. “No government—regardless of which party is in power—should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue.” The university does admit $2.6 billion went toward wages and salaries for faculty and staff last year.

Let’s not forget that Harvard wildly discriminates against Asian Americans to ensure the legacy applicants, in general much dumber than the Asian applicants, get access to keep the elite revolving door going – unfairly get in, graduate with a soft degree, work as intern at Dad’s Wall Street firm, run for Congress with huge Political Action Committee (PAC) dollars, vote in Congress to allocate more of your tax dollars to Harvard and NGO’s, and rinse and repeat for generations.

Stop Harvard, stop Columbia, stop burning your money so they can live on Martha’s Vineyard. Have a great week!
