| reply to Beeper Re: They could use those resources for other thing
said by Beeper : They aren't hurting for money. Government spends more than 800 billion dollars annually on public education, K-12 and college.
Considering how many elementary, Jr. high, high schools and community colleges there are does that number reflect an amount that would constitute "not hurting for money"? And if it is a good amount to have proper funding then why do many, many schools still have outdated technologies and materials along with teachers and staff being underpaid? Granted that could all mean mismanagement, but for me just looking at a large figure and assuming it's enough doesn't do it for me. |
