"The states might need to come up with more money for their programs as a result."

Parents like private school vouchers so much that demand is exceeding budgets in some states

At least four states that have made most children eligible for taxpayer-funded scholarships to private schools are seeing more families using the programs than planned.

No problem. Just take money from the antiquated and failing public school system, and send it where it will actually do some good.

That seems obvious.

The Kamala ad with all the former Trump White House staff needs to be answered. Just point out that these deep state actors have no interest in seeing Donald Trump as president. It threatens their livelihood of war.

I totally get your argument and despite my pro choice stance... Am personally opposed to abortion as a means of convenient birth control.
But I also am sympathetic to the lives of young rape victims ... and girls who are not ready for the responsibilities of motherhood or the weight of guilt from abandoning their child. An abortion is also a heavy weight.
At the end of the day it is their body. It should be their choice regardless of my feelings about it.
I would just prefer reasonable restrictions that include rape/incest/mother's health and viability.

Little late night humor.

NFL games are filled with the absolute worst fans. They are the worst fans in all of American sports. This is the crap you can expect at a Rams, 49ers, Ravens game for sure.

My last NFL game was with my 15 year nephew and my 10 year old son. . The day the Steelers broke Andy Daltons leg .. had adults cursing us out before kickoff even started , then an adult took my nephews terrible towel away from him and refused to give it back . It was pathetic and miserable . I'll never go back .. ever . Going to the restroom felt kinda dangerous .

Yay Kamabla and Joe caused so much inflation revenues are up while income is flat or down for the companies you chose to cite. That’s if revenue is even up same store, or if they’re growing by opening new stores while same store suffer.

I’m assuming those revenue numbers were nominal, not real growth, but don’t care enough to look. Within 30 seconds you could see net income is down.

Love when you post stupid links without understanding anything you’re posting.

Thats rich coming from one of the biggest supporters of the party of grooming children into mutilating themselves without parents knowing, forced injections of experimental gene therapy, etc.

 

[Caveman Catfan]

No problem. Just take money from the antiquated and failing public school system, and send it where it will actually do some good.

That seems obvious.

Yes. Reimagine “public schools” as a partnership that permits parents to choose, rather than a government run entity. Parents that care about their children’s education are choosing non-traditional public education. This is parent-up decision making, rather than government-down decision making. Those in Kentucky who desire power over our lives are fighting the constitutional initiative with lies. Surprised? I did not think so. Typical of them.

"Society" as a whole is fine. It is the outliers and infiltrators, such as yourself, that are the problem.

Think of a pond....below the surface you have an entire ecosystem of life....plants, fish, turtles, etc. And unless you take care of that properly, you begin to see that moldy scum filled substance floating across the top of the pond....that defines you and your ilk which end up causing problems. This is what Biden/Harris have done....they have let the pond scum form across our wonderful country, and the problem needs to be eradicated.

L

which is why I don’t understand how the race could be remotely close according to polls. Is America this stupid?

Yes, a lot of the country is in fact that stupid. They are trained to believe their teachers and the media and both of those groups have told that them Trump is in fact evil incarnate. These people worship at the altar of abortion and climate change and would gladly vote for their lives to cost 3x as much while crime skyrockets due to the coddling of criminals and importing the third world into our country than vote for Trump.

All emotion, zero logic.

Yes, these people are that dumb.

These are the people the left take as the gospel to create their entire world view. That’s a corporate media network with a major megaphone; not some blogger.

 

[sefus12]

Yes.

The media runs the election and a great deal of our society are too effing lazy to do real research to understand the facts. It’s too easy to listen to the pundits spout off. They are like celebrities to them. A true enemy of free America.

Throw in Hollywood and mega stars like Taylor Swift and her ilk and the influence is everywhere. The left has the bully pulpit. Always will.

It takes actual will, determination and most of all….common sense to figure out who is or isn’t right for the position. Its getting harder and harder to overcome the lazy electorate.

Our form of government requires an informed voting base. The left realized that was a threat to their power, so they have done all they can to grow an obedient voting base. And it’s been highly successful with that bully pulpit you reference.

I understand that everyday is a campaign event when you’re in government, but there the actual f*ck do these people get these ideas? Outside of the fake Fed roaming circus, where is said white supremacy? I’m serious. I travel a ton and have yet to been anywhere controlled by/taken over/run by these nefarious white supremacists. And I’ve certainly not seen video coverage of them taking over apartments or towns.

Thank you for posting this link.

Florida is one of the four states mentioned and I see this article as a positive for school choice. School choice is wildly popular in the state, especially among minorities. Florida has 3.4 million Blacks and 5.3 million Hispanics. The schools serving this population have all improved since school choice was enacted.

Funding is not a problem because due to conservative leadership the state has a 21 billion dollar surplus.

I have provided a link that breaks down the opportunities for all students. I would strongly suggest Kentucky pass any amendment that would provide school choice. School choice makes better teachers and those that are not good are weeded out. It also takes the power from the enemy of public education. the Teacher's Unions.

I don't think FCPS still does "busing", in the 70's sense of the word. Because it was a disaster for all concerned.

Honestly, KY school districts could save a ton of money, if they just cut out school transportation completely. It's not legally required.

School transportation should be eliminated everywhere. Ever see a full school bus these days? Most of them have 4 or 5 kids on them. 90% of kids are dropped off by Mommy these days.
How much could a school district save if they weren't running empty school buses twice a day?
