No! Middle class families struggle to give their children a college education.

Most inmates don't even want to spend 2 hours a day trying for their GED. How are they going to get through college courses. Let their families pay for the tuition just like us law-abiders have to do.

This is an absolutely UNACCEPTABLE way to manage funds. This is not rehabilitation at all!

How about you help my kids who have just started college and will probably owe $20,000 to $25,000 in loans by the time they graduate from a state school.

STOP all scholarships for PRISONERS...why is it my child, who worked her but off to make A/B honor roll, did not get one single DIME to attend college and yet these thugs and lowlifes who have done nothing but FEED OFF SOCIETY don't have to earn ANYTHING? and get EVERYTHING...enough is enough...it's time this country awards good behavior and neglects bad behavior...PERIOD

NY told me that if I had children they would pay for my education but being single and owning my own home they refused any assistance, so I've worked extra jobs and I continuing my eduction piece meal. No freebies for law breaks. Give law abiding citizens first chance at assistance.
