My contribution to this thread would be something like this. People of minority get more scholarship opportunities than white males... makes no sense. It should be determined by sheer intelligence... because someone is black they get to pay less for school. Stupidest shit I've heard. When I was filing out scholarship applications at my school I came across one that said you have to be black and less than 3.0GPA... so we are rewarding people for being dumb

If they really want to help disadvantaged people, they should do it on the basis of means.



Means would be some sort of qualifier but I still don't agree with giving dumb people money just because they are poor. A scholarship represents a investment in my opinion and investing in a bad stock is a bad idea.

now your discriminating against the poor because they dont have the same means of edjucation to recieve high grades. even if lets say that that a poor kid and rich kid are going to the same school, the rich kid is getting higher grades. who should recieve the scholorship? definatly the poor kid. the rich kid has the money to recieve an edjucation, the poor kid doesnt. this way you have two people getting edjucated instead of one

That is just a silly argument. Poor people (like myself) can get straight A's... what you said is just completely inaccurate. My income last year was 12,000 dollars which is poverty standing.
