The Assault on For-Profit Education
RedState has a good post on Obama's assault on for-profit education. Statists hate the fact that a company can have the audacity to provide a service students (and employers) want, do it less expensively than the government and still turn a profit!
But that's only half the story. If and when the gainful employment and other rules are implemented by the DOE (expected mid-2011), it will have a very big impact on a certain segment of students. I studied the data released from the DOE and the students who will be denied acceptance at schools will be largely students at inner city campuses - in particular, poor minorities (especially poor minority women), many of whom require the specific job skills training offered and would be on welfare without it.
Democrats will end up blaming the schools themselves when at the start of the next school year, these students are turned away, but of course, it will be these Democrat policies that cause it.
