What if the gov gave anonymous "evacuation loans"? The target audience is teens in crime ridden neighborhoods that want to escape, but have no means to do so, and even if they tried, the immense peer pressure wouldnt let them. The loan would allow such teens to relocate anywhere in the US, with all expenses, including tution, paid. Upon graduating the loan would be forgiven. I admit, this idea may be a fantasy.

Edit. Your comment being downvoted confirms that the politically correct left doesn't want to listen.

What do you think someone in extreme poverty would want to throw away their local family and support network, in exchange for being an outcast somewhere else? Are you going to pay them $100K/yt until they build a new life?

> throw away their local family and support network

Why do you label this as "throwing away their local family", but you wouldn't label the millions of regular students studying overseas or interstate in the same way?
