Most schools I see around my neck of the woods have tracks, basketball courts, huge parking lots, and probably indoor swimming pools! They are huge and look like government buildings!
They don’t NEED money-—they WANT money for their UNION INDOCTRINATORS—teachers!
There are some school buildings out there that look like palaces of ancient civilizations.
Sports facilities are common but the sports programs actually have the potential to train future warriors for our nation, so there is at least some benefit.
Political correctness is creeping into sports programs and one does wonder when they’ll move to ban football.
The witch hunt over concussions is moving at a quickening pace.
The buildings are expensive but even more expensive are pay and benefits for employees which total 80 or 90 percent of school budgets in California. The costs driven up by the need to maintain the pension system.
The governor here in PA is talking about cutting pension benefits for existing employees and replacing them for future hires with 401K’s.
If there is no reform I expect rising pension costs to cause school budgets in my area to be 80 percent employee pay and benefits by the end of the decade.
