This line of thinking is the same as Will Hunting say that you can get a Harvard education for 1.50$ in fees at the public library. Education is a wide-scope issue; availability is only part of the equation. It's easy to perceive education as "immediate" from the middle/upper class point of view, but it's not so immediate in reality for families living on food stamps and/or multiple jobs, and/or with relatives in jail, and/or having children going to schools with high crime rates and/or poor teachers, and so on. I strongly doubt that any of those self-made millionaires is the son of, say, a Mexican car washer.
