[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]You are 100% wrong about the value that poor people place on education because the vast majority realize it's the most reliable path to a better life. [b]You're also wrong that they're not entitled to it - it's in the Constitution.[/b][/quote] :shock: Teacher: Please tell me you aren't teaching history or social studies or civics to anyone over the age of about 5? [/quote] NP. It is in the Constitution, although not explicitly. The 14th Amendment states that the government cannot privilege certain citizens. The Supreme Court has held that to mean that if it educates one citizen, it must educate all. That's why special ed students get IEPs, and it's why states must admit all children to their schools, regardless of their parents' immigration status. [/quote]
