EXPERIMENT
A candidate for the Santa Barbara, California, Board of Education, suggests trying an experiment costing $1.50 a day for each of Santa Barbara's school children. Thinker Bill Hackett believes that well-educated people commit far fewer crimes and that people who have good educations, who understand computers and keyboarding and searching and communication on the internet will earn Warren Buffett type returns on investment.
What say? $1.50 invested now saves $90 cost later?
Sure looks worth a try. Can you help with ideas?
