Do you think all girls, wherever they are, deserve an education in a high school of sorts, if not why not?

I am one that believes that all men (and women) are created equal.

So yes, I believe that all women (and men) should be afforded the opportunity of a quality education....

@Threepio What if you have to pay extra taxes to pay for teachers in darkest Africa?
@SisterChaos I don't live in darkest Africa, so that doesn't apply to me.

However, I do contribute financially to distant family in SE Asia to allow them to attend better schools/colleges. I do this knowing that education is the key that turns on the economic engine... and they all are aware of my belief that once they graduate and establish themselves, they need to also "pay it forward".

As far as taxes where I live.... the school board asks for overrides if more $$ is needed and I'm fine with that for the most part as taxes here are pretty low, relatively speaking.

@Threepio What if it was a scheme run by a company set up by Obama for African children?
@SisterChaos
a scheme run by a company

Those are not taxes........... and therefore, I do not have to pay them.
