Does MBM's administration plan to address the so-called subprime mortage crisis?

There are whole communities where high school graduation rates are abysmally low. If we believe that education is valuable and, moreover, if a better trained workforce is a value to the economy, then this sad trend needs to be effectively addressed.

As a result, in high drop-out communities, I propose offering a combination of student stipends and/or family tax credits to support students who are successfully moving toward high school graduation. Perhaps even pegged to the minimum wage, the notion would be to acknowledge the societal, economic, and personal benefits of greater high school graduation rates and encouraging and supporting students and their families in that effort.

Basically, school becomes the students' job and they are rewarded for their positive performance.
