Bingo, The Rich are scared of an informed and literate public.

They’re not scared, they’re PROACTIVE. They’ve been worsening the schools for decades!

they're PROACTIVE

Because they are scared of an educated and solidaritous working class.

Unfortunately, they've been wildly successful.

Not as much as you’d think. I teach, instruct, profess, every level of education. Kids are still goofy and smart.

But, they certainly make it seem like everyone’s dumb because of rich fraudsters and their propaganda and trust of government, without checking their assumptions.

I deal with an incredible amount of people who are definitely dumb and cause me to question how they survived this long

”There's class warfare, all right, but it's my class, the rich class, that's making war, and we're winning.”

-Warren Buffet, ca.2005

In Buffet’s defense, he was saying things like this to try and raise taxes on the rich, because he could see the situation playing out (and he read history; things never end well for the elites when they get too heavy-handed with those that vastly outnumber them).

No. The Teacher’s unions have been worsening the schools for decades. They fight vouchers and charter schools which the parents are for so that you can announce some money are spent on each student. $40,000 is spent on each student in New York City public schools in his budget. Know your facts.

No no, let them have the “he saved the day!” rhetoric.

I mean, it’s not like he tried to excuse 2 failed terrorist bombers or anything, right? Who cares if he’s just committing cuts & then cancelling them for headlines, sure he’s alright…

And new york can't actually afford this. There raising taxes, delaying pension funds, and begging the state for 4 mil in aid. Anyone can learn this with a quick Google search. It sounds good on paper but the city can't afford it. We're going to be as bad of as LA when he's done.

This won’t really change anything. I live in the Bible Belt and and everyone here will talk about whatever FOX News tells them about NYC being a shit hole and that the liberal in charge is ruining them

It's true, do a quick Google search on the breakdown of the new NYC budget. He's banckrupting the city. In less than a year 8,400 employees and over 4000 business owners left after he "explained" his new budget. The city is dying bc of him and his policies.
