Another Stupid Liberal Idea

You just want to shake your head and think the mayor of Chicago was doing LSD, crack, meth and spice when he came up with this idea.
From the Chicago Tribune: Mayor Rahm Emanuel said he wants to require Chicago public school students to get letters of acceptance from a two- or four-year college, a branch of the armed forces or a trade program in order to graduate from high school, he announced Wednesday.
Emanuel framed the new initiative as his latest move to get kids thinking early about continuing their learning beyond high school. But he also said it would be compulsory. "You won't be able to graduate ... unless you show that letter of acceptance to any one of the four outlets we talked about: college, community college, armed services or a trade," Emanuel said while speaking about the program on "CBS This Morning" on WBBM-Ch. 2.
It isn't clear how Chicago Public Schools would enforce such a rule, given that high school students are not required under the law to enroll in one of those organizations to graduate. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-rahm-emanuel-high-school-requirement-met-20170405-story.html
What if a kid wants to go to work in a factory, or McDonald's as they decide what kind of work they want to do when they get older, they want to travel, or any other kind of activity that doesn't involve going to school, being in a trade organization or joining the military.
Also, what about students with disabilities?  Many of these kids cannot get into college, the military or trade program.  What happens to them?  They don't get a diploma but just get a certificate of attendance?
Maybe Emmanuel, a Obama/Clintonite, should concentrate on the crime problems instead of coming up with some very stupid ideas.
