Heh. This doesn't bother me near as much as some things. I mean, school for me has never cost less than $5000/yr (I started when I was four) and now I'm shelling out $26,000/year. Last year, my gov't grant was cancelled DURING the school year so within a week I had to come up with the money. Public ed is so frickin cheap already....I can't stomach complaints about the costs. And yes, I know I CHOSE to attend the private school, but the public schools around here are total shit. Really, they're grading scale is absurd, kids graduate from elementary school that can hardly read or do basic algebra, only half of the seniors in high school graduate even though they have standards lower than I ever thought possible, even the eople I knew who went to the "special" public HS for smart kids couldn't write a decent structured essay....If I were you, I'd get pissed about the state of the schools in general, not the grants. Most of the public school kids around here don't even go to college anyway. It's just appalling.
