Interesting. You and I seem to be mostly on the same page but all you can say is GTFO.

There is NOTHING egregious about giving middle / upper-middle class families a (partial) break on in-state college tuition that they are already funding through their exorbitant taxes.
The student needs to contribute something to get into the program and that something is being a qualified student. Right now the program encourages being below average. That's bullshite and you know it. It's a drain on funds for more deserving students to use. I don't care if the parents are middle income and I have no problem with a student from a middle income family meeting reasonable criteria to EARN the right to be included in the program.
Having a pulse shouldn't be the criteria and that's about what it is now.
