Trum[’s budget should eliminate all federal money and all federal programs dealing with education in the grades of preK-post grad and beyond.

Exactly. We didn’t have cell phones, apps, Facebook, etc. growing up. We played in construction sites, rode our bikes for miles without helmets, drank water out of hoses and picked up dead frogs....we should be dead now, according to liberals.

Good! They have things called parents to take care of them after school.

Parsing this stuff becomes automatic, meaning you can't help it, if you read Henry Hazlitt Economics in One Lesson

It doesn't really teach you Economics but you learn how to reason economically and automatically see the chain of follow-on results of an announced policy i.e. what it will really do as opposed to what is claimed for it. Once you have read this short book you can't help it any more. You can't be taken in by anybody's brand of pie.

Durbin has a lot of money. Let him pay for it if he wants it so bad.

Durbin is a dumbass and doesn’t have a clue how the public schools work in this State.

If we want to get serious about keeping our communities safe, we have to protect critical federal investments in our children like after-school programs

Probably more like they (he and his ilk) want to keep the Fed $$ for the afterschool babysitting to protect them from the children. Education used to be a sole state purview. The state responsible for educating its citizens. FedGov has no business being involved in any of it.

Maybe if the idiots in Chitcago quit voting for Democrats like tiny Dick Durbin and elected a few Republicans they might get different results than they’ve had for the last 40 plus years. Like President Trump asked the voters in Detroit “What do you have to lose?” How could it get any worse? Cannibalism maybe?
