"It is an increasing necessity that all should be allowed to achieve"

I stress the word "all".

My recommendation is to visit the inner city school systems and walk the footsteps of some of these students and teachers. Put away the lofty dreams and actually see what is going on. These kids are up against extremely difficult situations, as are the teachers who are trying to help them achieve. Many schools in RI lack computers and resources that would help children not only achieve a higher education, but also help steer many away from drugs, gangs, and difficult personal situations. If we invest in our children earlier the results will be better and they will create more opportunities for themselves.

"All", should mean all.
