Stay in School - It Pays!
Liberal lunacy is telling kids that the rewards of staying in school are not enough. Well, given the way that liberals have ruined a lot of schools, they may have a point.
More than 20,000 Arizona teens dropped out of the class of 2006.To fight the problem, 75 students from low income families at Amphi High and 100 from Rincon high were picked for the new program.
The students will get $25 a week as an incentive to stay in school.
What happened to doing the right things without having to be bribed? Staying in school to make a better future for one's self should be reward enough. Next thing you know, there will be ten thousand kids threatening to leave school if they don't get the money, and then they'll want "pay raises" each year. Maybe they learned something on the streets that liberal advocates for schools don't understand.
Me? I want $25 a week to take out my trash. That should go over well with the wife. Besides rewards, there can be penalities, too.

In most cases, Positive Behaviors ought be rewarded.
In most cases, Negative Behaviors ought be punished.
That's it. That's all of it.
