From the sublime

To the ridiculous, as Thomas Paine pointed out  there’s not much difference....comes news from the wonderful world of college education...entrance exams will now include bonus points....not for getting questions right, but for the amount of adversity you faced growing up.....you heard that right....the schools will develop a criteria and then award points for kids who lived in high crime neighborhoods, had divorced parents, lived in city housing etc etc.......so in other words they are discriminating against kids that had a decent upbringing......once again America is punishing success and rewarding failure.....so the parent that works 2 or 3 jobs to raise their family in a good environment, who puts their own happiness aside to send their kids to the finest schools is being punished and the The slobs that leave their spouses and neglect their kids are reaping rewards in reduced tuition and favorable acceptance into schools.....America is upside down....the madness has to cease.
