Who has the right to choose which students they will accept. Does not every high school grad deserve a colledge education. If you level and standardize the system and make the student achieve instead of college name the you have achieved. Why does one college cost $4000 a year and another $16000?

No one deserves and education. Education should, at least, be a choice. Besides, not everyone is cut out for college. Government coerced education (indoctrination) in this country is possibly one of the worst things to happen to this fine Republic. Let's move toward a market driven education system, and the government be damned.

No. You would not believe the number of job applicants we get who have a HS diploma and can't read or do basic math. So you want me to pay for them to goof off another eight years?

Dumbest idea of the day but hey, the day is still young.
