Ummm, ya. Also, the artistic elite. Basically, people who prove themselves especially talented in an area society deems especially valuable are sent to an institution meant for honing those skills.

I'm saying that the US government has (irresponisbly) spent enough money on Iraq war that should have been provided for free education to all who have received acceptance letters from college and universities.

There are so many things wrong with that sentence, I don't know where to begin.
1) The government wouldn't have spent that money on anything else
2) Wealth is not a zero sum resource
And weren't you preaching about Ron Paul not too long ago?
3) A college education is not a human right. It must be earned. Thats why there are acceptance letters in the first place. Thats why you can be expelled
