Americans Go Hyper Insane: Sue Colleges for Half a Trillion Over Entrance Racket

...In the largest known college admissions scandal in U.S. history, federal prosecutors on Tuesday said a California company made about $25 million by charging parents to secure spots for their children at elite schools, including Georgetown, Stanford and Yale, by cheating the admissions process. ...
I'm puzzled by this. I mean, America is supposed to be the home of the entrepreneur, and here's a company providing what is evidently a much valued service and the Federal Government is prosecuting them. What for I wonder. 

I mean it's genius, making millions getting kids into Georgetown. LOL. That's home to the professor who wants all white males castrated and their genitals fed to swine. Pay to get you kid accepted there? You're welcome. 

But what seems hyper crazy is the reaction of those who weren't smart enough to buy their kid a place at Georgetown or Harvard or some other pricey snob school.  
...a $500-billion US civil lawsuit filed by a parent on Wednesday in San Francisco accused 45 defendants of defrauding and inflicting emotional distress on everyone whose "rights to a fair chance at entrance to college" were stolen through their alleged conspiracy.
Half a trillion? Half a trillion dollars over hurt feelings!

Look, if your kid has a brain, he'll earn as much money after graduating from the local state university as if you'd pissed away a million bucks on a BS and Ph.D. from Harvard. 

But if American courts are insane enough to award damages of half a trillion dollars over your kid not being accepted at Harvard, then, yeah, go for it. If you win, your kid won't need an education. You'll be able to pay a Harvard grad. to read for him. 

Thing is though, why should a university not accept bribes or gifts, as in the case, for example, of Trump's Harvard educated son-in-law, Jared Kushner? I mean, Harvard is a private school. If they don't want to take your kid, perhaps because someone is willing to give them money to take their kid in preference to yours, why should they?

This seems just one more sign that the American Empire is about to descend into total madness.
