The goal of the educational system? It should be to, I don't know, educate. Not to feed, house, or provide social services, mental health services, or health care.
That's what families used to, before, ya know...

So those kids are just fucked?
That's up to their parents.
I'd be pro-choice if there were unlimited funding. Funding for teachers, schools, buses.
But there isn't. So I'm not.
Wow
Edit: Unless of course the child is a fetus.
It turns out that the parents are the parents, and the schools are the schools. That seems to work in every other community. Why do you imbeciles insist on using the only model that isn't working?

Survival of the fittest or fittest parents. That's what being pro-birth is all about. Once you leave the womb you're on your own.Name me another place where 90+% of a communities' youth contingent is gathered on a daily basis where they can access such things. Giving access to all those services from within the school makes the most sense. The other option is what? They're on their own? It's up to the parents?

It turns out some poor pregnant teens are pro-life. 2&2's answer for kids whose poor parents did not have an abortion is basically "go fuck yourselves."

Fixed.
State Sen. Trudy Wade (R-Guilford) voted for the bill Tuesday. She would prefer to leave the allocation as it is, she said, but that senators from rural areas outnumber the senators from urban ones and a compromise had to be made.
“The rural counties wanted an 80-20 split,” Wade said. “We would like to have kept the sales tax distribution the way it is, but in the Senate at least, that was basically an impossibility at this point.”
A 50-50 split was the best deal that could be made, Wade explained.
Remember, I'm the one in favor of the actual proposal on the table to attempt to better their education. You are apparently okay with keeping the current system while waxing poetic about theoretical alternatives.

Not at all. But if I have to choose between the current system and a thinly veiled move to defund/privatize education i'll go with the current system.
Remember, you are the one who said that if parents don't care about their kids education then those kids don't deserve a quality education.
That's not what he said, but I imagine that that misstatement is much easier to argue with.
What I believe he means, and what I agree with is, that there is no substitute for an involved family in educating a child, even the benevolent hands of the all-providing State. The State will always be the second-best solution, and if we ask poor kids to settle for second-best, I'm sure the bureaucracy will continue to deliver.
