re: Why do Louisiana conservatives like TOPS?

Unfortunately this is true. You cannot call yourself a fiscal conservative and be in favor of TOPs. It is a social give-away program. There are plenty of scholarships these days for those that deserve them. What pisses me off is that I have known some who have scholarships and TOPs, and if the scholarships pay for all or most of the tuition, the state cuts them a check for what's left over. Think about the tax cut we would all get if TOPS was eliminated. Taxpayers are footing the bill to send others' kids to college. It is time for this to end.

My wife (no pics) went to lay with a full scholarship because her dad was a disabled fireman, and also had tops. About a month into each semester she would get a refund check for several thousand dollars. Would cover all her spending money.
