<p>The false analogy is that work in college = good GPA. Work IRL doesnt necessarily = good $$. The hardest working are often the poorest. Better public education and dropping inner city "values" (crime, drugs, sex..) would make the playing field much more equal. AA would become unneccessary...
Education and intellegence seems generally frowned upon in the inner cities and rural areas. Its not "cool" to be smart.</p>

I believe in tax cuts for the rich, because I don't believe rich people should pay a greater proportion of their income in taxes than poor people. I believe even with a flat income tax, rich people will still pay a disproportionately large sum of their money towards taxes, when you factor in such things as taxes on property.
