[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure, I understand an educated work-force benefits all of us in the long run.  I understand a 4 year college or university education is really really really expensive.

But damn, how in the HELL are we going to pay for this? [b]Our primary education system is still fundamentally lacking and underfunded, and increasingly strained with children not paying into the system.[/b]

Is the cost of community college already so prohibitive that people who are intelligent, resourceful, hard-working, etc. can't find a way to pay for it?

People are not entitled to a college education.  This idea is just ridiculous.

I agree, we need to spread out the public education wealth first. Far too many "public" schools in high net worth areas with excessive resources compared to struggling schools just a few miles away. If primary education was indeed equal for all SES levels the community college cost would become a minimal issue.

I am sure most people against this have no sense of reality and grew up/live in the DC bubble where everyone makes a decent living and education.

You want to get rid of entitlements, how about mortgage interest tax deductions. They help out only the wealthiest Americans, and yes even you poor souls making only $150k are at the top of the income earners in this country.[/quote]
