Department of Education: A waste of taxpayer money or a necessity to our education system?

There are 15 cabinet-level institutions in the US government, including diplomatic agriculture, but certain institutions spend billions of dollars annually. The US Department of Education is an institution that can be kept to a minimum. The US Department of Education should be minimized, and states and local governments should be responsible for their own educational policy. In 1867 the original Ministry of Education was established to collect schools and educational information that help the state establish an effective and competitive school system.

But that was it. In most cases, the rise of American education is the rise of public education - in the past 30 years our political field has been dominated by the idea that all government expenditure is a waste of taxpayers' money . Education as one of the biggest elements of public expenditure will inevitably be affected. So far, educational neglect results are gradual, slow effects on the relative position of the United States.

Unfortunately, Hanushek is not the emperor of our education. On the contrary, all levels of our educational system are very useless and ineffective. It took more than 10 years in the class, and taxpayers' money spent more than $ 100,000. And it knows that most Americans are shocking. About one - third of adults have few words or numbers. The average knowledge of adults with respect to other standard academic requirements - history, social studies, science, foreign languages ​​- is almost zero. The average adult has a B.A. you have a knowledge base you expect from ordinary high school graduates. Normal high school graduates have a knowledge base that intuition expects to deviate from the average value. This is income of one trillion taxpayers a year ...

Educational Savings Accounts (ESA) is the latest attempt to transfer taxpayer funds from a public school to a private safe. The privatization of our public education system is a big prospect supported by a large super-conservative group like the American Children's Federation and the American Legislative Exchange Committee. We can not allow Palestinian legislators to follow the footsteps of Arizona, Mississippi, and other gates that opened the door, and our state by sucking in one fifth of the state's public school resources I threaten to completely change the K - 12 educational landscape.
