It's important that our children are raised to be educated, well-rounded tax-paying citizens that understand the importance of technology and science.

We have every resource necessary to provide access to education for every child on the planet; we just need to commit to enabling it.

We build schools and give government loans and grants to college kids; for those of us who are parents, tuition will often be the last big subsidy we give the children we've raised.

Innovations in science and technology are the engines of the 21st-century economy; if you care about the wealth and health of your nation tomorrow, then you'd better rethink how you allocate taxes to fund science. The federal budget needs to recognize this.

I believe that we parents must encourage our children to become educated, so they can get into a good college that we cannot afford.

We need to increase education budgets.

Education is the investment our generation makes in the future.

The United States government has the obligation to educate all young people in this country.

Policymakers can draw much from 'The Need for Roots': such clear prescriptions as that employers ought to provide an adequate vocational training for their employees, education should be compulsory and publicly funded, and include technical as well as elementary education.

We have an obligation and a responsibility to be investing in our students and our schools. We must make sure that people who have the grades, the desire and the will, but not the money, can still get the best education possible.
