The whole "busing for equality" was a sham. One of the claims for busing was that black students were attending inferior schools and getting an inferior education as a result.

Number one, why couldn't the fed gov. then move in and improve all those supposedly inferior schools? They forced many school districts to waste many thousands of tax dollars sending children on long bus trips to implement their stupid plan. Why didn't they simply try to improve those black schools?

And number two, how did the experiment work out as far as improving the educational performance of the black students? It didn't improve it on whit. After four decades of placing black students next to white student, black students nationwide are still at the bottom of scholastic performance.

The whole thing was a typical liberal, unmitigated failure which wasted many millions of tax-payer dollars. The people who instituted the program should have been publicly flogged.
