But at Least They Have a 75% Marginal Tax Rate

Progressive French President François Hollande has proposed banning all homework in his quest to achieve the ever-elusive “social justice.”  

According to the Wall Street Journal:

As Education Minister Vincent Peillon told Le Monde, the state needs to “support all students in their personal work, rather than abandon them to their private resources, including financial, as is too often the case today.” The problem, in other words, isn’t with homework per se. It’s that some homes are more conducive to homework than others.

Now all they need to do is strap weights on the strong students, put coke bottle bottom glasses on the sharp eyed, and make the smart ones take Thorazine.
