Education is paid for up through high school, but why should it stop there? College education is expensive. It costs on average $15,000 per year for a public college education and $40,000 for a private one. This petition's purpose is to try and attain some form of federal funding for college that is available to everyone, whether it be in the form of a grant to pay the in-state tuition for a state college or a free federal college.
We pay 40,000 per person per year on prisoners, so why can't we spend a little over a third of that on education? If you agree, sign and share it with anyone who is paying or has had to pay for college. If only 1% of US college students signs this it will be enough for a response from the white house. Spread the word.
