No, we don't value education because we price it out of reach and then force those who want one to go so deep into debt it will take years to get their heads above water again. No other civilized country in the world does that.

I'm not the one who suggested that something people pay for, isnt valued.. that was YOU.. in regards to education..

Really? I thought it was income. Are you sure income is income, rather than income?

Why do people pay for something you perceive holds no value?
