Our public school system is at the core of our democracy, and it must be protected at all costs, and certainly public does not mean private, it doesn't mean subsidizing a school that is religious based and has as its base an established religion.

If public schools don't reverse the downward trend in performance then doing the same thing is going to be challenged.

This is what voucher support is about. Yes, Musk would benefit but the focus is on families trapped in poor schools and have a way out.

I get the reasons against vouchers but it's going to be a more hot debate because it's going to lure left wingers over to the right if THEY can benefit from it.

Eventually this is going to be the excuse ... .."at this point, we're willing to try anything"

WSJ just did a piece on Unions and the downward trend.

Why do Corky and Talarico covet Musks money?

"No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money." ~ JC

Seems Corky has chosen his master is money. See what fraud you are yet Corky?

No it isn't voting is a the core of the Democracy. Public Schools in every government is used for propaganda, nothing to do with education.

This is why kids protest ICE, and not why the $30,000/pupil their parents tax dollars, goes towards the administrators new Mercedes.

Talarico: "What if we ran our world like we run a kindergarten classroom? Because at the end of the day, aren't we all just really big kindergartners?"

This is some one you look upto Corky etal? You must be 2yo....
LOL Its just so stupid. Reminds me of that stupid song. Is Talarico a Boomer at heart? I bet thats why Corky is infatuated.

Imagine by the Beatles ....

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us, only sky
Imagine all the people
Livin' for today
Ah
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Livin' life in peace
You
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

LOL

He obviously digs his reputation here as a witless troll deeper with every post.

- covet Musks money?

Let's explain this to you one more time; Oligarchs buy politicians to write favorable tax laws for them and give them Gov Contracts, which is common in China, but against everything in our, "we the People" Constitution.

Now, since this is apparently too complicated for you, we will totally expect you to stay just as ignorant as ever.
