We DO live in a country full of stupid people – so where is the money going and how, exactly, is it helping?
Newsflash: Throwing money at a problem won’t fix the problem. Here’s a thought – get rid of teachers’ unions, make teachers accountable for what they teach, and let’s get back to basic education that extends beyond reading, writing and arthritic to include more every day common sense education. Let’s quit muddying the waters with crappy programs like “Common Core” – (Common Core to WHAT common goal exactly?? How to become more dependent on government handouts??) and completely restructure our educational system. THAT’S what we need to make our country’s youth competitive again.
Not sucking additional money from people who CAN’T AFFORD IT.
