Spend $54 billion a year over the next tens years to do it. Cut some foreign aid, cut some Congressional pork, cut some food stamp & disability fraud and it pays for itself. Well worth it.

I dunno, we got 45 more days until she goes back to school, and besides reading a few pages of the dictionary and highlighting new words, I'm out of things to do. I feel we're just wasting time at this point.

Much as I hate to admit it, I think year round school is a good thing.

Or quit starting needless wars and buying new war toys to play with.
A bomb or bullet buys you nothin, and once expended all you get for it is more people angry at you - it's like fighting zombies with a shotgun, sure, you just whacked the one in front of you, while sounding the fucking dinner bell for every zed within a goddamn mile.
As a longterm plan, festival of suck.

On the other hand, every penny spent on education, and the well being of children is one more dollar we don't have to spend cause they didn't grow up to be monsters that hate us.

Investment potential, but of course, that would require being humane, something you fucking Randroids will never understand, cause no one spent those pennies on you - if I didn't despise you so because of the path you've chosen, I'd probably pity you fucks.

Mayhap ya'all germiphobes????

I had a "camper" at a Yogi Bear park that had mushrooms growing through the carpet in the corners and it smelled of mold. The best summers of my life were there though, and I didn't spend much time inside it except sleeping anyhow. Got my first kiss at Yogi Bear park. :)

Keep force feeding Purel wipes on your kids and they're going to die of the Common Cold by the time they're 25 like the Indians did.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

Libs hate home schooling and charter schools. Watch "Waiting for Superman", many teachers are more worried about their bennys then the kids they are suppose to be teaching.
