There never should have been a federal department in any way connected to America's school system. Federal involvement in education was predicted to result in failing schools and indoctrination rather than learning. It has proven itself so.
Gee Thanks Captain Buzzkill .....Don't be surprised when this bill goes nowhere.
He's just living in the real world. The Department of Education is not going away
Common Core. Are you seriously this dumb?There never should have been a federal department in any way connected to America's school system. Federal involvement in education was predicted to result in failing schools and indoctrination rather than learning. It has proven itself so.
What is this "indoctrination" all of you educator wannabees keep touting? The feds have almost zero influence in anything that goes on in a classroom unless it is special education or literacy programs for the poor kids.
She wants to take all public education and give it to her rich friends so they can funnel our tax money into their pockets.Anyone remember Barry Hussein's choice for Ed/Secy? Neither do I. Betsy Devos must be some piece of work for the democrats and the criminal conspiracy known as the mainstream media to put that much muscle into trying to prevent her nomination. Let's see what she has to say.
It was a gift from Carter. This whole behometh of worthless was a gift to the teacher unions in '79. And here we are with people thinking if it never existed nobody would learn anything. As if the actual levels of education haven't dropped since then.There never should have been a federal department in any way connected to America's school system. Federal involvement in education was predicted to result in failing schools and indoctrination rather than learning. It has proven itself so.
How does that get to their pockets? Currently the only pockets that stand to lose any money are the teachers unions and the crap teachers they insist stay on the payroll simply because...well, because.She wants to take all public education and give it to her rich friends so they can funnel our tax money into their pockets.Anyone remember Barry Hussein's choice for Ed/Secy?

Then you must agree that the vast majority of teachers are dedicated to their work.Common Core.

No, but it appears you don't know anything about Common Core.
There is no requirement whatsoever for states to adopt Common Core. I have taught using Common Core going on 6 years now and it is no different than the standards from the National Council for Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) or Florida's Sunshine State Standards, other than that they are more rigorous.
What most critics call "Common Core" is curriculum designed by textbook manufacturers that is "aligned" to the standards. That stuff is simply crap. No school is or was ever required to sue it and those decisions are made at the state and local school levels.
I have a Master's degree in Education and 20 years experience. What do you have?

Any of your kids or grandkids wearing pussy hats and vagina costumes? If they are you failed and their education failed. Do your kids need a safe space? You failed and their education failed. Are your kids in need of trigger warnings? If so you failed and their education failed.It was a gift from Carter. This whole behometh of worthless was a gift to the teacher unions in '79.

Really? How have they dropped? What reference can you cite to prove that they have dropped?
I graduated in 1978 and my kids had much better educations than I had.
The more they employee, the more votes they are assured. Does anyone realize if you took away public sector unions how few votes would be left for the Dems!?!
What makes you think that union members vote the way the union wants them to vote?
Trump just got elected by union voters whose union wanted the Dems to win.

And here I thought it was being liberal...Gee Thanks Captain Buzzkill .....Don't be surprised when this bill goes nowhere.
Being rational is one of my biggest characters flaws. lol
Then we don't need Betsy DeVos.There is no mention of education in the constitution so, by the tenth amendment, it is 100% a state matter and the DOE is blatantly unconstitutional. case closed.
Not gonna happen. Although i'm not completely opposed to it. We definitely need revolutionary change in our education system. Government-run Schools are a real mess. Democrat Teacher Unions have viciously fought against every possible innovation.
The Democrats don't serve the kids' best interests. They only serve their own interests at this point. Parents desperately need viable alternatives. It is time for change. Hopefully, Betsy DeVos will be successful in delivering that change.
I'll bet you cannot name a single example of what you claim to be true.
Are you up to the game or just spitballing your pet theories?
Done asshole, now what are you going to say?
Yes, you are likely done, but you are not done being an asshole.
You didn't listen to the video. That video does nothing to answer my challenge to you.
Tell me what innovation has been opposed by the teacher;s unions and not just the NEA. You do realize there are other unions beside the NEA, right?
Teacher's unions represent teachers. Do you think the teamster's union really cares about what type of fuel mileage their trucks get? No. They represent truck drivers.
Why is it that you mental midgets think that a union is concerned about students? They don't pay my union dues, that is if I were even a member of the union.
Applying left wing debate tactics...Then we don't need Betsy DeVos.There is no mention of education in the constitution so, by the tenth amendment, it is 100% a state matter and the DOE is blatantly unconstitutional. case closed.
Bill introduced to terminate the Department of Education, bringing funding back to the states
"While the Senate was busy debating and finally confirming Betsy Devos as the next Secretary of Education, Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY) introduced a bill to abolish the entire Department of Education on December 31st, 2018. Rep. Massie joins Dana Loesch to discuss his bill, which has gone viral on the internet.
Rep. Massie explains how the Department of Education has roughly 4,500 bureaucrats making around $105,000 apiece a year, dictating to states what the students will learn and how they will learn it. He states by making this cut there will be more funding available to the states to be spent in the school system."
With Liberals, it always has been and always will be about CONTROL!
