Does it even mean anything?   Why not allow 529e for a child one might have or 
come to know?  Then could start even earlier.

Reportedly there's some anti Roe v. Wade language tucked in the bill, too.  See 
page 92-93, I recall.

On the other hand, many professors want a cheap, dedicated labor force, and 
benefit from having a labor pool that believes they have poor employment

in suffering?  Meanwhile, research is done by many kind of organizations 
outside of universities.
Academia often does not play nice with industry, and often goes to great 
lengths to shield itself from outsiders.
At least half the talks I go to introduce the speaker based on their 
distinguished academic genealogy, and not based on any of their accomplishments.
Even the forms I have to fill out to invite speakers assume a certain kind of 
background, and the expectations are set up (at many levels of the 
organization) to judge harshly anyone that does not conform to that.

In a way, I see all this, and think Burn Baby Burn.
