If we closed down the paper mills and handed out those pieces of paper only to students with genuine academic talent... it practically would guarantee a job, as it once did!

Thoughts on the current backlash against the SAT/ACT/other standardized college entrance exams?

The liberal refrain is "High-scorers just had rich parents to hire them a tutor!", as if the tutor's instruction didn't actually uplift the children and make them stronger.

What _is_ unreasonable is fighting tooth and nail to prevent anyone without a sufficiently large bag of money from moving to Santa Cruz to try and preserve that low density.

Why? Why shouldn't locals be allowed to set development restrictions to their liking? Even if their desire is to intentionally stop population growth.
