According to the OCED. the top 3 nations in Education, China, Finland, and Korea all have something in common and that is they are all state funded, and mandatory. The United States currently ranks 17th and in 2011 we climbed to 14th. If this nation ever hopes to compete in the Global economy in the future, we will need to educate our young people in math and science and invest in them. It would seem to me that this sort of investment is the best sort of tax investment our nation could make for the long term future of our nation. If we as a nation retract from this and raise the white flag to nations such as China, then we have already left our young people with a dim future and one they do not deserve.
From the inception of the Dept of Ed, our children's education has deteriorated, not improved.
