Just because we have our share of Gomer Pyle does not make the entire country stupid. I'm sure there are plenty of uneducated MoFo in Canada as well as Europe and the Middle east. Bottom line is this when you dont have the opportunity and all you know is Billy Bob down the street is it your fault? Not everyone have the opportunity to get out of the enviroment they are under. That is why we have problems such as religious intolerance, in the middle east, and bigotry( in the south.). If all you know is what being taught to you by one view unless someone else comes along and re-educate you then you dont any difference. I'm tired of people stereo typing blacks and country folks that they are idiots . It doesnt matter if you are Albert Einstein if spoken in a country dialect you still sound like an ignorant person.

Believed me I've been there.

I don't know if this is true for all the states, but I've read that in many states that schools are financed by local tax dollars and not put in one big state pot, so it could be evenly devided. Since some areas are much poorer you get a situation where it's almost like having private schools within the public system, because the middle class areas would have much more tax dollars than a lower income area. Also, because these poorer areas tend to be black, blacks are put at a major disadvantage which is not right. In esance, all is not equal when it comes to oppertunity. It's too bad, because as a business person I love America, but their's a lot of untaped potential talent.

Ah, the eternal question: when is taxation without representation worth it?

My town's schools are paid for through my town's property taxes. I have a vested interest in being involved (or at least aware) in the educational system in my town, whether I have children there or not: If the schools suck, my property devalues. Conversely, if the schools rock, my property increases in value.

The City of Newark, NJ pays for only 15% of its own school budget. The remainder is paid for through state and federal aid. However, decisions about the schools remain mostly in local hands. Which means: improve your schools and you lose outside assistance, or keep them horrible, and keep sucking on the government teat. The end result for me is that my taxes go to something that I have no control over.

Furthermore, for the record, in NJ, the areas with the HIGHEST spending per student are also those with the WORST achievement records. Go figure.
