re: #129 Gus

What you really want to do is make everybody feel privileged. Those without traditional opportunity should have access to their potential including educational contributions. We all should have access to higher education at a reasonable cost.

To me the most ironic part of it all is that Mitt’s own campaign website bemoans how America needs more scientists and engineers so to alleviate the shortage he wants to open up more legal immigration for educated people. But nowhere in that same campaign website does he put forth any strategy for making higher education more affordable for American students. Its as if the GOP thinks the USA is devoid of opportunities for university level technical education so we need to outsource education to other countries and then convince their graduates to come here to live. I think this might be the most cynical part of the GOP platform.

F* all those Pell grants and Student loans, we just need to import more smart people.
