About Me

A terrible attack in the public schools

While cutting public school funding and passing laws that result is fewer teachers and lower teacher pay on the one hand, the GOP is now pushing hard at both the federal and state levels to divert even more money from public schools.  And where exactly are they targeting this money to go – private schools that are frequently religious affiliated.

Remember the talk before the election about jobs, jobs, jobs?  Yet one more example of the GOP using its new found power in the last election to push ideology over the reason they were put there – Americans mad about the economy and unemployment.

Where are the jobs and job creating programs Mr. Boehner?
