In my own district it was mismanagement more than funding. The only way anybody could get away from the hosed up way the schools were being run was by going to a charter school which wasn't formally run by the same people who oversaw the regular public schools. It's just one example, but it was true in may case.

And it is a family issue because when you get down to it may be the only way for some kids to get a decent education.

The point is that it shouldn't be the only way for some kids to get an education and it shouldn't be treated as a substitute for actual education reform

this wouldn't be done at the federal level in most cases. states/districts have significantly more power over education and funding than the feds do

RUSSIA HACKED THE ELECTION is dumb.

BENGHAZI EMAILS is dumb.

So in this case, yes, both sides are dumb as gently caress.

Also how can you defend Americans after they voted DONALD J TRUMP I HAD FAITH YOU MOTHER FUCKERS!!!!

We can debate what role Russia had in the releasing of the information, but honestly from optics, substance and motive (as well as our own intelligence communities assessment) I think it's clear Russia played a role in the election, he was openly encouraged by Donald Trump and the media were their typical useless selves and gladly let themselves be used for ratings. I believe this is the 'tat' for the 'tit' the Russians saw when we opened up centers to advance democracy in Russia and encouraged (McCain, of course) protests against the Russian government. This was one of the triggers for Putin's return to power and one of his first set of actions was to dismantle foreign funded political activity it deemed hostile. With Trump in power Putin will be able to cash in his chips from the Crimea to Syria, elevate Russia's place in the emerging multi polar world while diminishing the United States at the same time. A foreign power meddling in domestic politics is a classic sign of a nation's decline and our society must be vigilant in defending itself against this corrosive and corrupt influence.


As much joy as I took from watching the same people who created the most advanced and pervasive police states in human history have their own turn at the privacy guillotine and all their communications dumped into the open (how I :lol:'d) it is beyond dangerous what Russia pulled, how the media played along and how big of an impact is actually had. What happened was the equivalent of Watergate not because of what Nixon ordered but rather when the Nixon tapes were released and the true inner workings of the Clinton administration became open and obvious. Items such as Clinton orchestrating her connections in the media to promote Trump as a way of luring the GOP into self destructing were so cynical, short sighted, selfish and loving evil that it permanently killed any loyalty I could have had to Clinton even if she hadn't handed the world's oldest democracy into the hands of an open tyrant and demagogue. The knowledge is useful in that it openly identifies at least how deeply corrupted our political apparatus has become in the past generation. Even in that analysis, however, there is now the dangerous precedent that a foreign power can hack one party and, due to partisan division, the other party will not stand in unison to both condemn and counter the intrusion into our body politic.

lol yep. Ben Carson is a smart black man from Detroit. Never mind the fact that his intelligence has literally nothing to do with Housing or Urban Development, or that his profession probably prohibited his understanding of other topics due to the extreme focus required to master it.

I just read the first part about hating Trump the longest. He's right, he has. About the rest, BabyPolis is from Mexico, you know, the people Trump wants to round up in camps.

About mounting a resistance against Trump, maybe there should be a direct action thread. Everyone loves a Goon project!
