I dont have the best understanding of this topic since its confusing.
Meanwhile, we go into debt every time they print money.2) The federal reserve is the only unit of the US government that turns a profit. The fed lends to banks and earns a (very very small) spread.
Public schools in America are a joke.3) No not “everything” the federal government touches goes bad, public schools, the parks system, the FDA, public libraries, hospitals, I could go on.
Yeah, because everyone in the Midwest is just some knuckle-dragging country bumpkin hillbilly, right?And as for regulation: If science education wasn’t mandatory most schools in the Midwest would just have “god did it” as the explanation to everything.

Fucking Christ. I love how it's perfectly A-Okay to stereotype certain people while other people are held on a pedestal and if you demean them with a stereotype, you're an asshole.
Ahem. The federal reserve is NOT a unit of the federal government, they are a private entity. You just showed that you know 0. Zero about how the economy works1) Calling the entire federal government “big brother” reeks of conspiracy theories.

These things could use MORE funding, not “unregulated private competition”.
Because public schools establish a baseline of education, private schools have to offer even BETTER resources/etc to be worth the cost to parents.
Without publicly funded systems in place, the private sector doesn’t even have to try.
And as for regulation: If science education wasn’t mandatory most schools in the Midwest would just have “god did it” as the explanation to everything.
It’s tiring when people don’t realize that the “private options” should have a good federal baseline to COMPETE with. If everyone has access to $50/mo GIGAbit municipal internet like several cities in Colorado and Tennessee (among others) have, then your Comcast wouldn’t fucking cost $300/mo for “up to” 200megabit (1/5 of a gigabit).
Oligopolies don’t compete, they price fix. OPEC is 4 countries that together and nearly single handedly alone set the price of oil.
Opec? Apparently you are ignorant of what the "petro-dollar" is, and how all of those countries are forced to buy/sell using the american dollar. I suggest you research that as well. Also google "BRICS nations", and how some countries are coming together to drop the petro dollar altogether. (The US hates that. Thats the real reason were on the verge of WW3)1) Calling the entire federal government “big brother” reeks of conspiracy theories.

Again, that's an example of a poorly run system, not of public schools being inherently bad. As I've said already, the schools I attended for free are better than the best schools money can buy in America.Public schools are indoctrinating kids dumbing them down with common core. You wouldnt believe how many kids cant even read a clock or tie their shoes in todays times. Public education is gov't indoctrination.
When im using my phone, i care not about correct spelling. Typos and such are abound and to be expected. If i was sitting down at my computer i would do everything correctly. But on thr phone all bets are off. LolAgain, that's an example of a poorly run system, not of public schools being inherently bad.

Also, seems kind of contradictory to criticise the ability of the kids today and also not care about spelling, grammar, or effective communication.
I also mentioned grammar and communication. FYI saying you "care not" makes you sound condescending. Maybe you're doing that because you're trying to condescend, or maybe you think it makes you sound smart. But you say it consistently. Noticing that is called reading comprehension. You haven't really demonstrated the same, so again I think it's unfair for you to criticise the kids today.When im using my phone, i care not about correct spelling.

Also, you have a good point about the school system thing
I remember people saying the same things about my cohort 20 years ago over velcro shoes and digital clocks. I'm not necessarily defending common core because I don't know about it, but these scary claims precede it.Public schools are indoctrinating kids dumbing them down with common core.
