SCOTUS provides no reasoning for dismantling the US Department of education, a congressionally chartered agency.
We live in an autocracy now. I mean, there is a legal way to do this, which is to propose legislation to repeal the act that created the agency in the first place. But no, just use federalist society judges to just eliminating without any legal justification. |

Yes! We can finally cultivate a large, uneducated slave class to work in mines and factories! And even if OSHA is still alive, they won’t be able to read the safety rules and regs! Three cheers!! |

Hysterical much? Dept of Education has always provided little value. |

Not if you’re in a dirt poor state at the bottom of the rankings. Do Louisiana and Mississippi have the same school taxes as NJ, Maryland and Massachusetts? Good northeastern school districts will survive this. Places without a base of high warning property owners are screwed, unless the wealthy in their state want to pony up money to educate the poor. |

Or maybe the churches will open their Christian wallets and educate the poor— the way they did 100 years ago (see many of our immigrant ancestors). |

Really? That’s your proposal? |

Where will the money come from in poor states? Alcohol/cigarette tax? GoFundMe my local failing public school in Arkansas? |

Hate Trump, but we already have a slave class due to student loans. The Educstion department has failed higher education. It is probably more useful with primary and secondary education. |

LOL, that won't happen. This is just the re-establishment of segregation and tax payer funded Christian schools. |

and use taxpayer funded vouchers to pay for it, or are you ok with that? |

Well, there we go. That's really the purpose of it all, isn't it? There really isn't going to be much of a school choice if you're working class in a neighborhood with a poorly funded public school that's headed back to one-room school house days (and they'll be using little chalkboard slates to write because you need money from somewhere to buy nice supplies, unless the teachers use DonorsChoose). So, go to the poorly funded school, or go to the religious charter than spends more time on the Bible than biology. If a family has the means and desire to find better for their kids, they'll get the heck out of there. |
