Let's see: government funds for projects that have little to no regulation, oversight, or concrete goals. Yeah... good luck with that. I mean, is there any precedent for this?

And I actually like the idea!

Ctrl+F "teaching".

If we set up a "20/20" plan where the entrepreneurs spend 15-20 hours teaching (as in, the public) while they draw a salary, then it might work.

The only danger is that it pisses off the teacher's unions. It'd have to be a free after-school program.
