Have they figured out how they are going to deal with all the high school dropouts we have today? Are these folks going to get a pass and be able to attend college too? Seems like a waste of money if they couldn’t even manage to finish high school......

You have highlighted the root of the problem: few people THINK these days. You have asked questions that most Liberals and their pals in government do not ask.

Of course not!
They'd rather not.

However, in the present "entitlement" mentality atmosphere, I see the next logical step as demanding the equivalent cash amount necessary to get a college education, in addition to the current universe of dozens of welfare programs, including, of course, the criminal "earned income credit" and "income tax 'refunds'!"

I'm positive that ACORN is working on this very issue as we speak.

HS dropouts can already go to community college. They have an “Open Door” Policy. I believe they probably have to pass the GED to get any kind of a degree, but not to fear, I’m quite sure they have GED prep classes.
