"Much more important was a program through which Mayor Langford provided laptops to children, in all government schools, in first through fifth grade.
An MIT study found that the results of this social policy were "disappointing." Ownership of the free government laptops "did not increase use of computers for academic or content-creation purposes."
The MIT study further found that school-related laptop use somehow unbelievably actually decreased after students were given the free laptops:
"The frequency with which students used a computer to create or listen to podcasts, do research, or do homework all decreased slightly from the pretest survey (before [free laptop] ownership) to the posttest survey (after [free laptop] ownership)."
An army of sociology professors and community leaders could start a cottage industry simply trying to come to grips with the causes of this social engineering farce, and the subculture underlying it."

The ‘Footloose’ Fix

"Finally, young people suffer under the burden of student loans, often incurred in the process of getting degrees that turn out to be worthless.
Republicans should press hard for limits on this indebtedness and on universities’ ability to raise tuition without limit.
More, they should investigate and regulate higher education’s often-dishonest representations made to prospective students.
There are a lot of opportunities along these lines, and a smart, young, libertarian-leaning Republican in the Senate — like, say, Rand Paul, Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio — could get a lot of mileage out of seizing them, both personally and in terms of brightening the GOP image.

Sadly, history suggests not."
