The more money we throw at education, the worse it gets. Maybe there is a connection.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Who does this bozo think pays his salary?

Fifty percent (50%) or MORE of all states’ budgets go to education.

We’re paying.

But...but...but...it's for the children. How can Governor Walker be so cruel as to deny education to our precious children?

Sigh!

That was the line used successfully against PA’s last governor and he lost his bid for re-election. The stupid voters don't realize how much money spent in the name of education goes to teacher salaries, new football stadiums and what not. BUT in some schools most don't graduate. Those that do are functionally illiterate. I read in one local district, of all the high school kids taking the SAT, only 2 passed. You can blame much of the failure on other factors, but certainly, lousy teachers focused on indoctrination instead of education is a major part of the problem.

And homeschoolers far outperform those in public school,
like, 87th + percentile out-perform.

Seems that, if they TRULY favor “education” instead of union jobs and gov’t indoctrination,

they’d make conditions favorable for homeschooling families, like, lowering overall property taxes.
