Public schools spend too much time trying to solve unfixable problems.
Tell me how to fix bad/disinterested parenting, and I can solve the vast majority of social problems in this country.
But the government (and more specically, to this thread, the public education arm of the government) just makes it about funding.
Listen to me. There is NO AMOUNT OF MONEY that can fix public education. And when I say fix, what I mean is, getting 90 percent plus of the students to grade level in basic educational skills (math, reading, science etc.)
And further, the MORE the government tries to fix it, the worse it gets. Don't bother arguing either, because ALL of the known data confirms this.
Government spending, when it comes to social engineering/attempting to level the playing field, ALWAYS ends up disastrously. It becomes a complete whip-saw exercise, and an utter waste of more and more money.
