How are kids going to learn anything if they do not even have a textbook and if programs that prevent drop outs are cut the drop out rate will increase. The politicians will not be satisfied until our kids are the least educated in the world. Why don't they cut their staff or their salaries? In one state they are asking that people donate a dollar per day to help fund education. Last time I checked we are in bad recession, so who has that extra money to donate? I know I don't! Although, there is an online auctions ans classified ads, www.mainstreetfair.com, that will donate 10 percent of their listing fees to a school of your choice. There is no need to go into your pockets to give to schools all you have to do is buy and sell on their website and the donation is on them. It is something that we are already doing, so why not use mainstreetfair.com? At least they donate to a good cause, schools. Reduced spending will burden school districts.
