The rest of my editorial was accidently cut off, and the full story

can be viewed at florala.net.

I feel my point wasn’t made clear enough, and for that I

apologize.

I wasn’t suggesting the government cut off pell grants for

low-income families all together.

Many people do take full advantage of pell grants and end up

graduating. I’m not talking about those people.

I was simply pointing the finger to the thousands of people who

waste my tax dollars every year and never graduate. Millions of

dollars are being wasted, and that can’t be ignored.
