[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Montgomery County can't pay teachers, or even school bus drivers, enough to fill all of the positions, but they can waste time and money on a pilot program that some sociology university professor came up with to score points with the social democrats crowd.

This county is slowly eating itself away. [/quote]

This post is not worth taking seriously.[/quote]
NP, why?  Wouldn't it be better to pay bus drivers and teachers more to attract people to those jobs rather than give away money for free?  Kill two birds with one stone, as it were.[/quote]

Because it's apples to oranges. The really crazy thing about this program is how little it costs -- $2 million -- and what a big difference it makes in these families' lives.

I really think this is what the future holds. Every time I see something about robots delivering food in restaurants and self-driving delivery cars and self-driving trucks, I wonder about the people who had those low paying jobs.[/quote]
