-—1) Open up the GED to any child of **any** age. Remove all age restrictions on these exams! If they pass this exam, or similar private exam, award them an official high school diploma from their local government owned and run socialist-entitlement K-12 school.-—
They could prorate the cost of education based on student age and give the kid a percentage of the savings for opting out sooner.
They could use the money for two things:
1) Downpayment on a home.
2) Post high school training ( preferably not at a university).
3) Startup money for a business
I like your suggestions
