1. Income level between Bulgaria and Costa Rica

As if our economy would continue to be managed as poorly as it is now.

Offer free college education to everyone and Americans will do their part to keep this country great.

2. I'm all for that.

Just about any decent job nowadays calls for a college degree. I think it's time to extend free public education to the level of a four-year degree. Vocational schools should be set up for those who aren't cut out for college. If we're going to compete in the global economy, we're going to have to spend some money on our work force. I think this issue is as important as health care.

3. Americans LOVE to compete

Unfortunately, the only competition they are winning is the one to waste the most money on troops, armaments, and nifty phaser development.

4. Not in education.
