[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Do you know what's truly absurd about all of this? We have over half of students in America getting free or reduced lunch. We have an enormous number of students living under the poverty line. And what are we talking about and spending money on? Standards and standardized testing. We've got a huge problem and it's not standards and standardized testing. [/quote] Entirely different topic and issue. But as usual, when the argument starts to go south for the anti-CCers, they change the subject. As though the money spent on standardized testing could solve the poverty issue anyhow. There was only around $6k in federal dollars spent per school on standardized testing. That isn't exactly going to feed much of anyone, much less solve the poverty issue. And as always, there's the difference between giving a man a fish versus teaching a man to fish. Seems you'd prefer we just hand out fish rather than teaching anyone to fish.[/quote]
