Re:You Draw It: How Family Income Affects College Chances by scarecrowbob on Thursday May 28, 2015 @01:36PM (#9619728)
We don't have to do as well at educating low income children as some theoretical money-is-no-object family... you;ve got a strawman here:

"Even increasing per-pupil spending in public schools to that of the Phillip's Academies is arguably impossible in all but a handful of the top GDP/capita nations, let alone all the private tutoring and traveling and internships that Johnny has access to."

It is reasonable to expect that we can educate kids at a standard where income doesn't affect outcomes for most folks.
