[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]wow so despite having the highest tax rates in the country DC still relies on the federal govt grants something ain't right[/quote] Every single school district in the US relies on federal grants in some way whether in Westchester or Baltimore. These figures show DC, despite having a large population of lower SES students has a smaller percentage of the budget made up of federal programming. People have absolutely no idea how much federal grant funding makes everything we do possible. But when universities are forced to chose spending their endowments on health sciences and engineering or college football a lot of people might get a much more intimate idea of how federal dollars are spent.[/quote]
