The biggest problem in America today (oay, well, one of the biggest anyway)is that despite what we say, our culture is not one that values education. We value success but not the road to get there. That's why criminality is so tempting to the urban poor, why some poor end up in a trap,

I totally agree...
We are taught by pop culture to idolize celebrity and their behavior. And unless you have someone willing to step in and counter that school of thought... It is going to be a tough life for many of todays young.

If we valued education, we'd value more than just giving our kids an advantage. We'd value elevating all of society by helping to educate every child in America to the fullest extent possible... and as much talk as we have about this, I've seen little in the way of actual concern.

Again... I agree.
