Almost anything you see coming out of this God forsaken state is intended to hurt someone or to benefit the rich and powerful.

The last good thing that I can remember is when Tennessee Promise got passed and made college “free”. Except you had to go to either a 2 year community college or one of a handful of specific colleges (which conveniently didn’t include any HBCUs). And then you had to be enrolled in a 2 year program. And if you ever dared to declare a major (which was really easy to do accidentally), you immediately lost it for every future semester with no hope of an appeal.

Basically, there were a million ways to lose it and never get it back. This isn’t evidence of anything, but I don’t know a single person who managed to keep it for the full 2 years at a regular university.
