I'm not kidding. Every attempt to introduce meaningful reform into our public schools has been stymied by that fracking teachers' union.
I agree

The part that Kafir ignores in his rant is if parents don't care about child's education then the child will not be receptive to recieving the education, so the amount of money spent on education is mote until this problem is addressed by the parents themselves.

The government can lead you to water, but it can not make you drink from the fountain of education if you don't want to.

So if you want to fix education you first have to address the entitlement society that Kafir's generation has enabled, and mine continues to propagate.
