Best economic stimulus is a high school diploma

A just released study shows that the economy could grow "significantly" if educators could stem the number of high school dropouts by half in big cities. The Alliance for Excellent Education says that there were 600,000 dropouts in the class of 2008, and if half had graduated, their incomes would have added $4.1 billion annually to the economy.
