| Message | The F.R.P. would support article 1 but never article 2 and we are proud supporters of an open and free market. To make education for-profit could lead to amazingly incredible immoral acts at various schools. While we're no fan of regulation we surely don't believe our Republic's children should be essentially auctioned off in the guise of an education. |
