[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like Dept of Education is on the chopping block. Any idea if the plan is to return the funding to the states via block grants, or will they simply leave states to choose between closing schools or raising taxes? And… is there anything stopping a state from simply abolishing public education altogether?[/quote] Aren't schools already run by states? What do you think pays for your local public schools, DOE? Your RE taxes and more. [/quote] DOE does distribute money to states for education, much of which goes to things like programs for disabled students and subsidized lunches for low income students. Most private schools won't take students with severe disabilities, so even if their parents could afford a private, they would have no options of the public schools couldn't take them. This is a cruel FU to poor and disabled American children and their caregivers.[/quote]
