We should cut funding for public education because we spend more money per student than nearly every other nation, but we're ranked very low on the world test scores in math, science, etc.
So unless you think Americans are innately more stupid than other countries, there is no reason why we should have to spend more money to be worse than everyone else.

[quote]Well yeah, which is why I'd say reform. Budget stays the same, but change how the current money is allocated. But cutting/reforming education meaningfully causes butthurt in Washington so you never see anything done.[/quote] Is it time for us to just sidestep Congress entirely? Out in California, we have Propositions, basically bills that go to a public vote for implementation rather than leaving it up to legislators.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Nominate A Good Troll for benevolent lifelong dictator of 'Murica. I'll get shit done. No more of this Congress shenanigans. Considering Congress' approval rating stands at 8% or something ridiculous, not like I could really make things much worse now could I?
