But you see, as he notes himself in the article, the students are under performing. So we should be removing money from the schools to punish them. That will help the grades come up, you see

It’s bloated because it’s not “their kids.”

The irony is that the US actually does spend more per capita on education than pretty much any other nation, but only because we've gutted public funding in favor of private providers and schools.

Our basic services are insanely expensive because we refuse to socialize them like a normal fucking country.

The result is hypocritical conservative headlines like the above that amount to a "NO SERVICES FUNDING, ONLY EDUCATED WORKFORCE" version of the frisbee dog meme.

If you need money to compensate for the tax breaks for billionaires and their companies and money to fund weapons and wars for Israel, you gotta save somewhere, duh!

Sufficient funding and wasteful spending are two separate categories. Because yes every school could use a ton of more funding. But I do feel that a lot of schools have become very top heavy in administrative personnel and a bit light were the actual teaching happens.
