t r u t h o u t - Report: Tens of Thousands Will Lose College Aid I think it is short-sighted to cut costs on education which pays off later on. Less education, more folks going to prison. It is a pathetic form of compassionate anything that willing sacrifices the brain trust of the future for material gain of the richest in society. Shame on the Bush administration and on democrats who go along with this stupid method of balancing individual interests with the social good.
