If by that you mean I only care about myself. Then I would say it happens everywhere not just in the US. You hate that we drop million dollar bombs and Oregon had to cut 20 days from school. What does that have to do with anything? We spend MILLIONS on Education and it doesn't help, if we spend millions on education and kids still don't know the capital of there own state or where Iraq or England are on a Map. In NY they spend close to 9,000 per student but yet some students still cant read at grade level. How would spending more money help? |
In Canada I might have to wait, but it won't destroy my credit if I can't pay.
Maybe, The last time I was there the wealth seemed to be distributed much more equitably.
And yes I was saying america seems much more concerned with personal wealth. The well being off all mankind seems to be a second thought.
In Oregon our schools are funded from taxes. Our unemployment rate has skyrocketed. So less taxes paid equals less school dollars. This damn 7 percent unemployment rate has ripped millions from our schools. The twenty billion given to the Airlines should have gone to our schools. That would have taught many kids the location of where there book money (I mean bombs) are falling.
In Oregon we spend ton's per kid too. The number is misleading. Special ed kids take up more money and so do the schools in small towns.
