The Michigan state government is sending more of our tax dollars to DPS which is upsetting more and more us who don't live in Detroilet.(misspelling intended)
The Detroit public school council wants to get control back after operations were taken over because they did such a horrendous job getting the system into tons of debt while both the physical condition of the schools and education deteriorated. They want the rest of the state to pay for them to be able to make bad decisions.
Corruption and mismanagement are systemic problems that started decades ago in Detroilet.

Hasn't Detroit been bankrupt since 2009 ?

Obama bailed out the auto industry & then Detroit asked him for a bailout (more than once.)

But didn't the Supreme Court say 'no' that it is unconstitutional ?
*And of course they were all his old buddies *

and then, she said this, tell me she didn't say this.

Detroit Teacher: $1 Million In Bribes Is Only ‘A Little Bit Unethical’

A public school teacher in Detroit is upset the federal government is daring to prosecute public school principals who allegedly took close to a million dollars in bribes, arguing it was only a “little bit unethical” and was really no big deal.

Cathy Brackett is a teacher at Bennett Elementary School in Detroit, whose principal, Josette Buendia, is among 12 current and former Detroit Public Schools (DPS) principals accused of taking part in a $900,000 kickback scheme. Buendia herself is accused of taking $45,775 in kickbacks from businessman Norman Shy in return for ordering school supplies from his company, Allstate Sales.

According to Buendia’s indictment, these school supplies were often never delivered or only partly delivered in order to make the order appear legitimate. The indictment says Buendia’s conspiracy with Shy lasted for over three and a half years, with Buendia frequently meeting with Shy to discuss how much he owed her and to discuss how she could disguise the payments as gift cards intended for school purchases.

Despite the formidable allegations against Buendia, Brackett told The Detroit Free Press the government shouldn’t be prosecuting bribe-taking principals.

“It’s pitiful that they’re going after principals who are probably just doing what they need to do even if it might be a little bit unethical in order to provide the students in their schools with the supplies and materials that they need that district and the state should be providing us,” Brackett said. It’s not clear why Brackett believes Buendia’s scheme would have allowed the school to obtain more supplies and materials, since a major part of the indictment is that they took bribes to order school supplies that were never delivered in the first place.

Instead of corrupt principals, Brackett argued the federal government should be investigating the emergency managers who have been running DPS since a state takeover in 2009.

“They should be going after the big thieves who have come into the district under the guise of emergency managers and consultants who have skimmed not just thousands of dollars but millions of dollars away from our students and just move on to their next gig, seemingly without repercussions,” she said.

The City of Detroit and DPS...Detroit Public Schools..have separate budgets and separate financial obligations including debt. Both have had financial trouble due to flight from the city for the last 40+ years which has hurt their tax revenue.
