There may not be many things more anti-American than being forced to pay for a program you find morally objectionable. However, it happens all the time. But in Wisconsin, Gov. Scott Walker is trying to help end that.

 

In particular, Walker wants to make sure conservative or libertarian state college students won't have to fund opposing programs with their fees. Unsurprisingly, the Left is up in arms:

 

Walker also proposed that UW students could opt-out of allocable segregated fees, which he said would give students the opportunity to decide what they want to fund. UW-Madison students pay $607.56 per semester in segregated fees, and only roughly $90 of that money is allocable.

 

Colin Barushok, chair of the student government committee in charge of allocating UW-Madison student segregated fees, said this proposal is an example of state government reaching past what they are in control of.

“This is the best example of big government overreach, trying to take control of our allocable fees,” Barushok said. “They don’t have any business telling students they can opt-out of these fees, especially considering these fees are allocated by elected student officials.”Scissors-32x32.png
