I say we start with the Saudis and then work our way through Africa....and by the way, guess who gets to pay for that? It'll cost a fuck of a lot more than sending kids to college, which you so vehemently oppose.
Let me ask you a question. Should every child have a right to attend elementary school? Junior High School? Or should the only kids who get to go be the ones whose parents can afford private schools and the rest of the kids will be ok because you think they can somehow just "be performers"??
Paying for all of our kids to go to college is really just extending education in our country for another 2 to 4 years, since we're already paying for every child to have the first 12 years.
That's not an unreasonable thing to do considering how much more our kids need to learn to compete in the global marketplace.

Lenny... I'm so not dissing you...
"Let me ask you a question. Should every child have a right to attend elementary school? Junior High School? Or should the only kids who get to go be the ones whose parents can afford private schools and the rest of the kids will be ok because you think they can somehow just "be performers"??"
EVERY child should be afforded a basic education. However (if you're a parent, or had been my parent LMAO) some will reject it.
College is a prestigious honor. My younger sister worked 6 years to make what I have not. (I still make craploads more $$ than her, but that's besides the point).
My point is... going to college is EARNED, like everything else... not handed out "because it's the right thing to do".
IT IS an unreasonable thing to consider being that 80% drop out. People need to learn PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY again. You want me to send YOUR/and or OTHER's to college on MY Nickle? Fuck you.
I'll send mine if he wants to go. AND Since... you are so education oriented and willing to give, pay pal me $20,000 to blingdaddy at the Masturbationstation.com
I'll put it in his American Funds account and he'll be ready to go in 17.4 years.
