  You appear to know nothing about how schools are funded. Closing the department of education is the goal and promoting “parent choice” so they can funnel public funding to private schools though vouchers. So your local elementary, middle, and high schools gets funding cuts to subsidize private and evangelical schools.

    You have no proof of this whatsoever.

    And I DO know how schools are funded. I worked for one for over 20 years.

      If you worked in one and didn’t recognize the effects of this happening, you didn’t pay attention. It’s been the Republican playbook for more than 20 years.

      I’d say go back, but we’re close to not having that option.

        Again, you THINK that is happening. Republicans have never said they just wanna go around closing schools.

        You’ve never worked in a school have you?
