I wrote the above and agree completely--we can't avoid these problems, and school problems are by definition county problems. I just think it's a waste of time when people offer up these "why don't they just X" ideas. We can never "just X" anything--there are always tradeoffs, but it seems like at every CIP meeting and every budget meeting and every community meeting, half the time gets spent debunking the same dead-end ideas. Then we have to have some huge community process to move every single project forward (Wilson School, new south Arlington elementary, Fire Station #8) because everyone in the community digs in to their narrow positions and our leaders won't lead the way to a balanced solution--they wait until everyone else has fumbled their way there and then they rubber stamp it. Its ridiculous. [/quote]

I love you. Would you be interested in taking over as benevolent dictator, at least until most Arlingtonians have some remote idea of what "compromise" means? (Hint for the rest of you: It does not mean getting almost everything you ask for, then asking for more things that have occurred to you since.)[/quote]
