PAY Students To Go To College.

Instead of having college students go into debt, we should go beyond what the other developed countries do. Which is make a college education free for those who want to go. But actually pay them to do so. For example, I have heard that there is a shortage of nurses in this country. Pay them a little more to be educated in that. Also, what do people expect college students to do. Do their studies and go to bed? If a college student needs a junker car to get around in, he should have the money to do so. Or if he wants to buy some decent cloths or take a girl out on a date, he should have the money to do so.

Another thing is that something most people know is that if you want to get more work out of somebody, the best way to do it is to treat them well. Paying them to go to college would certainly do that.

This is a foolish idea and will, of course, never happen. I can think of few things more enervating to the human spirit than inculcating young people with the notion that they ought never strive to improve their lot in life unless bribed into doing so.

It brings to mind the dispiriting effects of Communism on a people .
