I'd cut federal direct expenditures on K-12 education pretty
much completely, save for Special Education and Title 1.

and you'd be wrong. Every dollar spent on education
generates $5 to $10 for our country. Cutting education
is the quickest way to turn us into a third would country.

Fantasy. The US did fine with the level of education seen in the 19th
century.

Go to Google and type in "very dollar spent on education generates".

Pity that all that produces is the line run by the education institutions.

Wota surprise.

Fantasy?

Yep, your line about a third world country is pure fantasy.

Hellooo, what 'chew smokin' boy? We're not an agricultural society any
more.

Yep, lots of automation of all sorts of things that means that the level
of education that the state system produces is perfectly adequate.

No need for the federal govt to spend any more on top
of whats raised and spent at the state and local level.

Dont even need basic maths now that everyone has cash registers
etc so even the stupidest ape can manage without fancy maths now.

Things changed after WWI.

Not on any need for the federal govt to spend on
education at the school level being discussed it didnt.

Weapons were mechanical and we needed
soldiers who could read the damn manuals.

You dont need the federal govt to spend a cent to get people able to read,
stupid.

Before WWI, most people were lucky to finish the eighth grade,
which was fine for plowing fields, tossin' hay, and building fences.

And they could read too. WW2 worked fine without the federal govt
spending anything on education at the school level being discussed.

Done any DNA analysis with electrophoresis lately?

That aint done by the K-12 education being discussed.

Uh-huh. In the 19th century high schools and Colleges were rich folks
prerogatives.

WW2 worked fine without the federal govt spending
anything on education at the school level being discussed.

These days you need a PhD. just to assure your self a slot on the day
shift.

Pigs arse you do, and that aint the K-12 being discussed anyway.

Come on Rod. Pull it together. You're losing it.

You've never ever had a ****ing clue. So stupid that you havent even
noticed that you dont get a PhD from the K-12 being discusssed.

Right, and we'll build the foundations of a successful college education
by cutting education? Your about as sharp as a bowling ball, boy. You
certainly are a vacuous, foul mouthed little bubble head aren't you? The
first thing to learn about "tar babies" is that's they makes no sense,
no sense at all. The second thing is thats the more you mess wid 'em,
the worse it gets.

Enjoy you cranial rectal inversion Rod. There are too many other places
I'd rather waste my time, than waste it with you.

Hey, anybody lookin' for a tar baby to waste their time, step right over
here, no waiting necessary.

Oh, and no sense tracking me down. Your not my type.
