    That’s not the issue at all. It’s the curriculum, the no child left behind act implementation, and the overall indoctrination and corruption of a system of government that rewards the rich.

    Most schools get plenty of money and just blow it on things they don’t need. Buildings way too fancy and overpriced educational subscriptions to crap, instead of spending it on more teachers and teacher salary. The money is plenty there. None of the rich fucks get a cut from cheaper buildings and teacher payrolls.

      Stripping education doesn’t necessarily mean money. The GOP has waged an all out war on knowledge over the last few decades. Hell Fox News was recently saying “colleges make liberals” despite the fact that all the people saying it had college degrees.

      No Child Left Behind gas been terrible. And I agree that money needs to go to teachers, not admins

        I’m in my mid 30s and Fox News was saying that colleges make liberals when I was in middle school.

        Probably even before that, I was just too young to notice
