Trent Lott says on CNN this morning

[JoesHO]

Some school districts, here in Oregon have been forced to cut all extra ciricular programs, including any after school care, sports, or other programs, such as thespians, chior, band etc....

in fact they are now only going to 4 days of week school instead of 5 what is next?

they already make people pay for the bus service if your child rides the bus....

I think this is more the core of why people bitch, cause we still pay as much, but the services get cut, it is not about giving them more, it is about REAL accountability, and unfortunatly building more schools, and sending teachers to other countries to teach our way of life, is not the answear IMHO
