Your conclusion appears to be that since great schools can be so expensive I need to pay for someone else's spawn in order to make it slightly easier for them? If the family buys BMWs rather than Fords I suppose I should help pay for that as well. Your logic is twisted. University of Missouri I was recently told charges $20,000 a year for tuition; St. Louis University is $35,000 and Washington Univ. at $45,000 per year. How are parents and kids able to afford these cost in obtaining the marketable skill sets current required for gainful employment and pay of student loans.

That is why kids and their parents need to carefully consider what they major in. Before pursuing a degree in multicultural transgendered studies they should investigate the employment prospects. Many degrees provide a nice ROI, even at high prices. Others are worthless even if they were free.
