^ I just read though it, and I'd like to make a few other points. Alejo, you're statements on the education system show how closed you are to the outside world. By that I mean you clearly aren't in tune to the challenges that face hundreds and thousdands of people in your country, and all around the world. Maybe do some volunteer work with kids in inner city areas, trust me, you will be shocked at how little these people have. After that maybe you will realize how difficult it is for them to make a better lives for themselves. Night school costs money, that they don't have. Scholarships are extremely difficult to get, as is financial aid. Student loans are even harder, because if you don't have a good credit rating, forget it. One more thing, I find it funny that you are commenting on how muh taxes YOU pay, I seriously doubt that any of your mony is going to the government, seeing as how you are still too young to vote. A more accurate statement would be that your parents don't pay much.
