The typical people I know whose kids are on TOPS live in $300K houses and take a couple of expensive vacations a year.
Wait what? The horror.
Go around the state and find me an area with good schools where the average house price isn’t between $250-$300K.
And what does that have to do with scholarship? Students that excel in high school should be automatically saddled with the cost of college just because their parents are able to afford to live in a place with good schools? Except if theyre female or a minority of course.

The point, of course, is they can afford to pay their tuition, instead of accepting welfare the state can't afford.

This is truer than you think.
My son has great grades and test scores and should be eligible for a lot of merit-based scholarships, but in looking at a lot of schools, most financial aid is need based (i.e., it's great you busted arse and have great academic achievements, but your parents make to much too reward you).
