Interesting until little Johnny's parents sue the school system because he didn't get a diploma. See little Johhny got straight A's but hasn't decided what he wants to do with his life yet.

Sounds like an essay assignment to me. I'd have them design three reasonably solid plans with a timeline, resource requirements, budget, and funding source options. Even if they didn't do that, at least they'd understand what's required should they come up with something they want o do later.

It's a very good idea; but it will only work out in a sane, normal world.
The only way to escape welfare dependency and the violence it breeds is to escape the culture completely and go somewhere else.

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

"The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth."

But how does that fit with social justice, tolerance and diversity and equality?? (er, uh, we both know the answer).
