| Topic: Empower Black Parents With Vouchers | |
|---|---|
|
|
 In a commentary titled "Solutions to Black Education", Dr. Walter E. Williams writes the following: "There is little that the political and education establishment will do about the grossly fraudulent education received by many black youngsters, and more money is not the answer. For example, according to findings by Cato Institute's Andrew J. Coulson, Washington, D.C., spends $29,409 per pupil (http://tinyurl.com/mpc82dq). In terms of academic achievement, its students are nearly the nation's worst. The average tuition for a K-12 Catholic school is $9,000, and for a nonsectarian private K-12 school, it is $16,000. A voucher system would empower black parents to remove their children from high-cost and low-quality public schools and enroll them in lower-cost and higher-quality nonpublic schools." Dr. Williams' idea would work for black children who are trapped in poorly-performing public schools, but the teachers unions are opposed to school vouchers. So, who do Democrat lawmakers side with? Answer: The ones who provide Democrat lawmakers with campaign cash, and they aren't the black children who are trapped in poorly-performing public schools. One way to close the so-called "income gap" would be to provide poor children with a better education, and the use of school vouchers would help to accomplish that goal. Yet, Democrat lawmakers work against that goal by being opposed to school vouchers. Why? Answer: The ones who provide Democrat lawmakers with campaign cash aren't the black children who need vouchers in order to escape poorly-performing public schools. Democrats who are wealthy enough to send their children to private schools seem not to care about the parents who aren't wealthy enough to do the same thing. The former have what they want; the latter are left to wait for Superman. Who knew that Lex Luthor was a Democrat? |

All they have to do to provide better educations is raise the taxes in those school districts.
Take the Fed out of schools. Property owners and other taxpayers are Taxed Enough Already. |

http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2009/08/31/090831fa_fact_brill  One school principal has said that Randi Weingarten, of the teachers union,would protect a dead body in the classroom. What good is all the Money spent ,even thrown at Education,if the Union protects lousy Teachers from being weeded out of the Educational System by any means they can think of? |

What everyone seems to fail to remember is..... you're dealing with a liberal brain trust! You expect them to come up with anything that borders on reality, logic or common sense?

In April 2006, Wisconsin's Democratic governor Jim Doyle signed a big expansion of the Milwaukee voucher program. In June 2006 Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano, another Democrat, allowed the creation of a tax-credit scholarship program and signed two new voucher programs into law. In July 2007 yet another Democrat, Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell, signed a $16 million increase to the state's tax credit program. Fellow Dem Iowa Gov. Chet Culver increased the state's educational tax credit program by $2.5 million in May 2007. This summer Louisiana passed a voucher program forNew Orleans students with a large bipartisan majority, 60 to42 in the state House and 25 to 12 in the Senate; it will use $10 million in state money to pay private school tuition for as many as 1,500 children. And on July 2, 2008, a third of Florida's Democratic caucus helped pass a $30 million expansion of the corporate tax credit program. Overall, student enrollment in private school choice programs has increased by 84 percent from 2003 to 2007, according to the Alliance for School Choice's School Choice Yearbook 2007. This year the five states with the largest school choice programs are Democrat-dominated: Florida (39,000 students), Pennsylvania (38,000), Arizona (28,000), Wisconsin (19,000), and Ohio (14,000). Each of those programs continues to demonstrate solid year-toyear growth in student enrollment. - See more at: http://reason.org/news/show/some-democrats-supporting-scho#sthash.rhyBZ5ai.dpuf democrats are not unilaterally opposed to vouchers as for the issue of vouchers, one can search 'vouchers dont work' to find a whole host of reasons and 'research' supporting anti voucher positions one can do the same with 'vouchers work' |

Under comments in that same article, MatthewlovesAyn Wrote:
I like to give this example to my teachers friends. Give me six students from the Washington D.C. schools. 6 times $29,409 is $176,454. I feel that not only could I properly educate those six, I could feed, house, clothe and nurture them for that amount, I could deliver the kind of human beings this country needs. That school system can't. Homeschoolers Arrested in New York: Slavery Returns to Amerika In a move designed to send a message to parents, a Montgomery County, New York, couple were arrested and ticketed for homeschooling their children and failing to register their them with the school district. "Richard Cressy, 47, and Margie Cressy, 41, both of the town of Glen, never registered their four children or their home-schooling curriculum with the local school district, said the Sheriff's Office," reports WRGB, a CBS affiliate in Albany, New York. "The Superintendent of the Fonda-Fultonville Central School District confirmed the four children, ranging in age from 8 to 14, had not been registered with the school district for the last seven years." The couple may lose custody of their children. The case has been turned over to the Montgomery County District Attorney and the Child Protective Unit. Hating the Constitution 101: The Common Core on the Nation'��s Founding Is despising the Constitution and the men who made it one of the new "standards" in the Common Core State Standards that prevail over the curriculum and testing of public schools in forty-five states in the nation? A candid look at the documents of the Common Core will reveal that whatever the professed "��standards," there is a clear political agenda behind the facade of school reform. So where do you want to begin, the dumbing down of America begun many decades ago, around 1850 when the government took over education. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZJoCfgAEuE The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America Welcome to the World of Government by the government for the government. The world of those with the power to enslave and impoverish the masses and have them begging for more. Personally, I support the homeshcoolers, bless them for doing the right thing. |

And to think if any of the students misbehave, they have friends in the private youth detention centers that need to have beds filled. |

ALL statements are usually false,,,
especially those espousing what ALL of a party does or doesnt do,,, and what does misbehaving have to do with what type of school one is in? |

Why just black children? it obviously wont just affect blacks, but being its African American history month, and under education disproportionately affects black children, it is an issue to consider,, |

ALL statements are usually false,,, Would depend on those using it and subject matter. If Odumbo is involved, the falseness would drop to less than 2%. And that 2% would involve something to do with being king, the only thing in his mind that he believes to be actually true. especially those espousing what ALL of a party does or doesnt do,,, Sure, no private prisons, no private youth centers, no private corporate involvement in government, especially the Dumbocrats at this point, those poor Republickans, getting so poor. and what does misbehaving have to do with what type of school one is in? Google, Bing, Ask, Yahoo. |

I so hate articles like this and I truly despise the comments made by folks who don't see the correlation between stupidity and uninformed opinions. Let's for once discuss our nation's education system. It's not only black children who are affect by how bad our education system is, it's whites, Asians, Hispanics, and so on. When we isolate one race we do so with the hopes of really making a point as opposed to wanting to make things better.
