This is good news for my fellow Tennesseans. The only thing that still bothers me is that we use lottery, with all it's baggage, to fund these schooling initiatives. Well, let's be honest, I don't like that we have a lottery period. It is interesting, however, to see this kind of policy planning. Lower-income, lower-educated people tend to play the lottery more, which in turn funds programs that makes it easier for lower-income people to go to college, which hopefully reduces the number of lower-income, lower-educated people in the state. Making education more accessible is an awesome goal, and I hope that it works out here.
