Getting CorelDRAW into schools

Foster had another good post on this. My comment:

I love your school idea, and truly believe some kids would be there on weekends and evenings instead of getting into trouble or just wasting time.

I wonder if their could even be special gov. assistance for this kind of thing "outside" the school system, through a community outreach program to get kids or the unemployed doing something rather than moping around in depression.

There are some other benefits. These days I've been getting somewhat political. More than ever, I think kids should embrace:

  1. The process of capitalism. Design, create, sell: The kids can meet a real need in the community, with a real product.
  2. The evaporating concept of freedom of expression. If kids want to put flaming skulls on a shirt, bunnies and flowers, controversial ideologies and slogans (regardless of far right or far left position)... it's all fair game. First Amendment Rights!!!

Another idea: Corel should have a full-time rep that only deals with product manufacturers. Not a sales rep to give them bulk deals, more a technical dude that shows WHY Draw should be #1 choice to drive their equipment, whether preparing files for CNC, garmet output, vinyl cutting, plasma cutting, xerox, canon etc.
