It’s not just withholding of funds, they can also request the state to pay funds back that they have already “given” to them...
> What happened to the ‘car washes’ ‘bake sales’ doing things for donations to raise money for certain causes?
The DFA and Department of Agriculture will require disclosure and certification of bake sale product ingredients.
In 2010, Barack Obama called for fixing the public education system by giving us the Elementary and Secondary Education Act and “Race to the Top,”
which he said would fix the education system already fixed by the 2001 GW Bush and Ted Kennedy legislation called “No Child Left Behind,”
which was supposed to fix a system supposedly already fixed by a 1994 piece of federal legislation called “Goals 2000,”
which was supposed to fix a system already fixed by “America 2000,”
which was a 1991 response during the Bush administration to a 1983 federal report on education called “A Nation at Risk,
which was published a full four years after Jimmy Carter first fixed the nation’s public school system by establishing a cabinet-level Department of Education in 1979.
Then buy them at the store and add a few cents...
I did a research paper on the “55 saves lives” blackmail lie in high school.
the fedgov uses money to get get states to pass laws the fedgov does not have the constitutional authority to make.
Here’s the plan: Texas recommends each of its 10 million (or so) taxpayers send $1000 of their taxes due to the feds to the state instead. At the same time it offers to pay the U.S. taxes and provide an attorney for anyone who is actually taken to tax court (which can only be a small fraction of the total).
Once off the teat they loose all power over you, for ANYTHING.
Besides that, there is no delegated power given the federal to fund education among the several States in the first place. That alone is reason to stand against it.
The FIRST federal agency to go in my fantasy presidency is the Department of Education. Shut down, lock, stock & barrel. Everybody attached to it FIRED. I hope I live to see the day it becomes a reality.
BS. Two Words: Lottery Proceeds.
Oh well ... I guess their PARENTS will have to step up.
me too.
But, the state won’t want to give those funds up.
Only about 11 percent of our independent school district is federally funded. The rest is mostly from state funds and local taxation. I wonder if we reduced our expenses or replaced the federal funds with non-federal sources we could throw off the chains of Washington? Any ideas out there from more enlighten FReepers as to whether this might be possible. Texans would like to tell Obama and his Department of Eduction to shove it. States should determine and control their public education based on their local needs, not those of Washington or the world.
Bump
Needs to happen ASAP
Actually, the national 55 mph speed limit was passed by congress and signed into law by President Richard Nixon in 1974. In 1987, the limit was raised to 65 mph and then in 1995 Congress repealed the law.
