Naw man. $300 million ain't that much when the objective is to build an educated, trained workforce. To lift people to a higher station. it's not that much at all.
The people in this state can't even agree on whether this is a good investment or not. We are doomed.

TOPS is a luxury the state can't afford to provide
And the standards are way to low. Some of these kids on tops are so dumb that they have to move to Texas to find a job after school

If true spending reform were enacted by slashing wasteful programs across the board, then I would be in favor of curtailing or even dropping TOPS.
However, as it stands, TOPS is one of the few avenues for the middle class to recoup a fraction of their hard earned tax dollars currently being squandered by politicians and deadbeats.

TOPS has been bastardized anyway as welfare to middle and upper middle class parents for college tuition.
Wasn't TOPS the old Taylor Plan tat was designed to give sholarship money to lower income kids who met certain requirements who wanted t go to a state school?
