1. Nothing is free and people who think like that are clueless about public administration.
2. Want… wanting things is not a problem.. I want a winning lottery ticket… I want to be CEO of Forbes.. how interesting that we think just because people want.. they should have… education has become a multi-billion industry on five levels… and that is why it is so expensive

Nothing is free in this world, you will pay higher taxes for this “free” education. The U.S. pays more for K thru H.S. Education than any country, it is obvious more money is not working.

Got this from a teacher about 20 years ago. Which proves several things including if you want the truth, check the system–folks in it usually know the scoop.
We’ve been lied to. What? Not-not-by–our–government–???!!!nnnnnooooooooooooo!

Virtually every increase we’ve agreed to has been used for building a bigger bureacracy,NOT for hiring more teachers, or better supplies, or whatever.
When This teacher started–in the 70’s, the teacher to administrator ratio was about 6 to 1;in ’91 it was more like 1 to 4. Counselors had about 50 or so students; by ’91 it went to more like 1200 or more. And it’s gotten worse since.

We voted again and again for ‘reduced class sizes’. IT HAS NOT HAPPENED—EVER. Where’d the money go?

Here’s a tip. Drive around any large town and check the number and size of administrative headquarters. Oh and don’t forget the satellite(mini)headquarter buildings Just make sure you take your chill pills first because what you see is really going to piss you off!

So, Education quality dropping like a rock, millions of parasites sucking up OUR money, and they say they need more.

Reform is what we DO need and NOW.
Fiscal accountability–not business as usual.

We all understand the small govt bias of this website. I know of no one denying that obvious fact — allies or opponents.

Did that somehow escape your notice? Are are you (gasp) biased yourself?

And this is coming from CalWatchDog, which claims to be a fair and balanced source without political or ideological bias. Yeah, sure.
