I don't need to back up the education ranking of Calif, it's all public and easily accessible to all.California is not just a small example, it is the most populated State in the Union.Political beliefs have much to do with education. Take California as an example. 40 years ago led the nation in education. Today, 49th. 40 years ago it was a Republican stronghold, today a Democrat stronghold.Who's responsible for the Department of education?
Maybe someone should have focused effort on educating inner city youths instead of making girls accept males into their showers instead?
Education is mainly the responsibility of the states. The states are generally run by the Democrats or the Republicans, as is the Federal government. Where do you think I put the blame?
At the feet of the people voting, of course. They keep electing the same shit over and over and over again, without using an ounce of their brain power. Just like they buy fizzy sugar drinks instead of drinks that are actually good for you, just like they eat crap burgers, because they're told how happy they'll be if they buy this shit, and they're told the same thing if they vote for these assholes too.
So what kind of argument are you making? One based on one example, without backing anything up, and trying to claim that somehow Republicans are the ones in the right?
Or are you making a decent argument? I think the former!
Facts are facts, education is extremely poor where Democrats are in power.
They are more focused on putting males in girls showers and brainwashing kids about the Gorebal warming myth and teaching kids Ebonics than they are about teaching kids how to read and write English.
Facts are facts and you're using them BADLY and not even backing them up.
You say education is extremely poor where Democrats are in power. You're talking bullshit.
High School graduation by state, of states that haven't voted once for Republicans in the last 4 presidential elections, the graduation rate is 87.66%, for states which voted 4 times Republican it's 86%
High School graduation for states that have either 0 or 1 Republican controlled part of state government (ie, governor, house and senate) is and average of 87.4%, for those with 2 out of 3 it's 87.1% and for those totally controlled by Republicans it's and average of 86.2%
Again, republicans seem to be lower.
For bachelors degree, for states with either 0 or 1 Republican controlled parts of state government, the degree rate average is 32.2%, for those with 2 republican controlled parts it's 25.7% and for those totally controlled by Republicans it's an average of 25.4%.
Which part of these statistics suggests that Republicans are better at education to you?
In fact, if you look at the stats, it takes you 31 states to find a state which has either 0 or 1 Republican in place on the list from the BOTTOM of Bachelor Degree graduations, with Hawaii at 27.5. Below Hawaii are 30 states, all of who have 2 or more parts of state government that are Republican. Every single one of them has at least one part of the their congress as Republican. Only three in the top 15 states have 2 or more Republican controlled parts to state government.
So again, which part of this shows that Republicans are better at education?
Los Angeles High School graduation rate just went from 67% to 74%. Great news, right? How did they do that? They eliminated the graduation exam.
26% STILL CANT GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL WHEN NO GRADUATION EXAM IS GIVEN.
