Why does college cost so much?

See the Goldwater Institute's study on Administrative Bloat at American Universities for the answer. 

Why aren't Arizona high school students teaching civics?

"Just in time to celebrate Independence Day, the Goldwater Institute will release its new report, "Freedom from Responsibility: A Survey of Civic Knowledge Among Arizona High School Students," which reveals only 3.5 percent of Arizona high school students have learned the basic history, government and geography necessary to pass the U.S. Citizenship test."

Scary!

Note that 92.4% of citizen applicants (i.e. immigrants) passed on the first try.
