Right? It always confounds and amazes me when people discount this simple fact.
Education has been fucked over so hard in this country, repeatedly. They want people dumb.
Some one has PAID them to do this. They're a tool used by the powerful (just like Ds), the mega-rich use BOTH parties, just like you would use a Phillips or a standard screwdriver.
Ds have been in power a huge amount of that time, depending on the time frame they've even had the majority of the time... and they took just as much of a part in the "dismantling the public education system".
Look at the RESULTS instead of listening to what they SAY. They'll say anything (they being all of them)
Yes, I know, bOtH pArTiEs and so forth, you got me, you win, etc.
Blame it on the technology though, because admitting that Republicans plan are ALWAYS terrible for anyone below the 1%, without exception, somehow is impossible.
It's almost like the people drawing these conclusions from incomplete data are.... poorly educated?
