Romney's Education Plan: "get as much education as you can afford"

William K. Wolfrum Chronicles distills Mitt Romney's "get as much education as you can afford" down to its essence.

Mitt Romney’s theory that kids should “get as much education”as they can afford” is highly unoriginal. Many nations have that philosophy. Like here in Brazil where kids will quit school in the third grade so they can get a job begging.

So basically if you are rich or can afford to take out student loans you can get an education. If you are poor or middle class, have a great time working at McDonald's. Just another expression of the "let them eat cake" mentality of the oligarchs.
