Will Republicans try to destroy our school system just to prove it's no good?

[rdean]

Once again, from Universities ranked world wide, the US has four out of the top five and ten out of the top 20.

You have dropout Scott Walker cutting 300 million from college level education and in Texas, they cut billions from education.

Remember, Republicans say government doesn't work and then makes sure it doesn't. Now they say our schools don't work and college students only drink and party. Will they try to bring down our educational system to prove it doesn't work the same way they try to bring down government?

Education is elitist and run by liberals who indoctrinate our children and make them eat healthy lunches

It must be stopped at all costs

LOL The dems are destroying public education. That's a fact, jack

LOL The dems are destroying public education. That's a fact, jack

How, by defunding it?

You can't have no facts to back something up and then say it's a fact. If you were educated, you would know that.

Why fund something that isn't working, American kids from public schools are behind the curve. It's pathetic

Who has control over the schools and has for YEARS?

Mabella Obama isn't a Republican last I heard.

you people are so pathetic. instead of worrying over the kids that are being failed by the schools, you worry over how you can use it for your dirty politics

This is when they say something silly like "You cant throw money at a problem and expect it fixed" as if someone is going to just throw wads of cash in a school and watch the school morph into School-a-tron or something

Reading scores remain flat? Well duh. Computers, TV, movies and so on.

So their answer is to defund it. That'l do the trick.

And yet, those are the kids going to the best universities in the world. Odd that.

Your answer is to keep throwing good money at something that isn't working.

Apparently, Sassy girl can't answer my question. She was making stuff up again....what a surprise.

LOL "well duh." ?
Indeed.

Why not take a day to chew on this, think it over, and I'd love to hear your revised reply. I'll wait.

Or if some other liberal would like to jump in with more of an effort---so far this is just too easy.

You're hopelessly lost and confused

Ummm....HERE'S A SHOCKER: Republican States Have The Best Public Schools In The Country, By A Long Shot - Business Insider

Ok, rdean, we'll just go with "computers, tvs, movies, and so on." (Boy is that some interesting 'and so on!')

[sigh] It disappoints me to actually have to type it out. If the expense didn't actually result in better test scores than those of the kids who figured it out in the stone age....how is the expense justified?

If marginal funding increases has no impact on education results, how do you successfully argue cutting funding harms education results?

Seriously, this debate is almost 20 years old and liberals are still losing it. Now you don't even show up for it. I have to take that as a rhetorical retreat...because if I took your response at face value, we'd have no choice but to question the quality of your education.

If this thread is any indication, even Democrats are resigned to the fact that charter schools are the necessary algae eaters of the hopelessly unkempt aquarium that is public primary education in this country.

Did I say "dance?" Apparently I meant "scurry like little critters when you turn the lights on."
