Monday matters

Steve Chapman argues that the new policy made by President Obama forcing all children to attend school until they are 18 or they get their diploma as a question to it. He asks wether it is beneficial for those students who were planning to drop out at a early age stay in school longer. For example, a student who is failing all his classes and must help support his home through working cannot not spare the time of school until 18.

Columnist Synthesis

Clarence Page is a very opinionated on the decisions and action of political figures and issues. It is obvious through his columns in the last weeks that he is very sensitive to inconsistency. He finds it idiotic that a political figure would say on thing a do another, in a way he sees this a lying to the public. An example of Page's outrage in inconsistency is in a column in which he calls out a republican nominee for supporting child education system that he previously didn't support.
