Pioneer Institute: Spend more on public colleges!
Well, maybe that's not exactly their point.
UPDATE: Steve@Pioneer claims in our Comments section that Pioneer was actually trying to point out that Massachusetts has a heavy public debt, not that we spend relatively little on public higher education, and he points to this op-ed as proof. According to Pioneer's Charles Chieppo and Steve Poftak, the debt amounts to $12,550 per citizen. But surely we can match that by spending more on public higher ed. Doesn't every freshman deserve one of these as a reward for graduating from high school?
You missed our research report calling for more money, less governance, and increased administrative staffing? ;-)
I was actually hoping to make a point about debt levels. See http://tinyurl.com/36wkrf

Geez.
Thanks for the good news. Now what do we actually DO about it?

Pioneer is no conservative organization. They are a private institute funded by global corporate foundations, pushing the NWO agenda in our schools with this 'We the People' curriculum.
Don't be fooled into thinking they are conservative!
