Several states are requiring it now. I don't really want to constrain my teens to attending college in Louisiana, and with the number of states now requiring it, it may well be back in front of the legislature soon pushing it.
But the real issue is never, "Why woudn't a person want it?"
The real issue is whether it should be a government mandate or a personal choice.
