There have been absolutely no successes of the Dept Of Ed that can be cited. Govt monies flowed to the states public school system and will continue to do so after the dept is ended. However, the many millions that went to the bureaucracy of the dept and to the teachers' unions will have been dried up. BUT fear not libbies, as the majority of [wannabe] teachers out there are still libbies/progressives so [unfortunately for our students] the indoctrination will continue, just with fewer of our tax dollars being wasted.
FYI:
"In fiscal year 2024, the US Department of Education received approximately $188.6 billion in funding, representing about 10.3% of the total federal budget."
"In FY 2024, the Department of Education transferred 25.4% of its total spending to states and local governments."
Don't you wonder where the majority of funding [our hard earned tax dollars]has ended up???
I've a paper loss, no actual loss as do not panic sell, and the dividends and distributions continue to flow. Will be bargain shopping in the near future : )
