Romney Shares His View on Access to Education

Romney education remark favors the wealthy…yet again

Once again, Mitt Romney’s words are revealing his true allegiance.

During a recent campaign stop in Virginia, Romney, the presumed Republican nominee for President, said that he wants to make sure that students get as much education “as they canafford.”  9:20  for yourself.

Here’s the video.  Skip to the  9:20 mark in the video to hear his comments.

For wealthy folks like Romney—who’s estimated wealth is somewhere in the hundreds of millions of dollars—this isn’t a problem.

But for teachers and other school employees who are struggling to make ends meet, Romney’s statement carries some very grim implications…especially when you consider that a quality public education is key to the economic outlook of working Americans and the country at large.”
