Choseing to be a part of the silent majority

Question one:Specifically what direction do you want this country to go?
A: I would like to see America become less of a corrupt country. A place were people can be become educated without become a financial slave to the system, and too be able to support themselves and their family's.

Yes... I believe that secondary education should be free. However, the teachers we have in our public schools are already underpaid, have to use outdated material and many times pay for their own supplies in the classroom out of the already meager wages they are earning now.
So, I ask you the following:
1. Just where should the money to support free college education come from?
2. What sort of criteria needs to be met in order for a student to get this free education?
3. If a person comes from a well off family, should their family be forced to pay for that child's college education or should that child go to school for free?

What about students who want to get into fields that require graduate school? That's another four years of post secondary education that needs to be supported. Careers such as doctors and lawyers require this additional schooling. Those are just two fields requiring not only the student take ethics classes, but upon obtaining their respective licenses, they are now upheld to a higher standard than say someone who doesn't need licensure from their state in order to practice their chosen field of study. They also must renew their license on a regular basis and must keep some sort of malpractice insurance, which can run into the thousands of dollars per year, to maintain.

For my chosen field, I will need to take AND pass my State Boards in order to legally practice my profession. While it's not costing me upwards of half a million dollars, I will have to obtain a license from my state or I cannot practice my field of study. I will be held to the same level of standards as that of a doctor or nurse or any other professional that requires a license to practice in my state. Yes, my education is costing me $18,000, but because I am required to be licensed, should I still have to pay for my education? If not, then neither should someone studying to become a doctor or a lawyer.

          If you have proven potential , your school should be paid in full. If a student wants to become a lawyer or a doctor and he or she does have the potential, but does have the potential for something else; then they would get funded for a career in their strengths. Ex: I score high in computer science and math and you score high in language and political science. Your scores in computer science and math are a lot lower then mine, and my scores are low in language and political science You want to become a computer programmer, and I want to work in politics. Both of us are in the middle to lower income households. It would be waste of both our talents and the governments money since both of us lack the skills for the jobs we want. Would it not make more sense for you to pursue a career in politics or languages, and me a career in computers?

If a student does come from a wealth house hold, he or she would not be eligible for education assistance, if your family is worth over three million dollars. The money should be generated from those who make more $600,000 a year.
