Now in a better world we'd drop a word from this sentence and make it free for all state residents. That's closer to what it used to be.

Realistically this doesn't change much since it's extremely unlikely a foster kid wouldn't qualify for a full ride prior to this.

The only people who really get screwed are middle class families who make too much to qualify for aid, but can't really afford to pay for school.

In Georgia, if you have and maintain a B average its free.

I don't agree its fair, though, for the blue collar folks or the people who aren't bright enough to go to college to have to subsidize it.

Or in Georgia's case, those with a gambling problem.

Do blue collar workers require healthcare from college educated people? Do they benefit when American industry is competitive on in the international marketplace?

We shouldn’t be leaving people behind but the idea is that we all benefit from an educated workforce.

There’s plenty of arguments to be made over the details but let’s not miss the big picture here.

Blue collars pay quite a bit for the healthcare benefit without having ti subsidize their studies.

Besides, what s%^%t return for the blue collar! For every, what? 200 paper pushers with a BS white collar job they get one surgeon.
