There is not a strong causal link between money spent and grades. Quality of Family is more important.

No way. Ever since the government got involved in education, the standards have gone down and the education has gone down.

Great formula:

Government intervention = quality deduction = bad

Government non-intervention = quality increase = good

I didn't say the money had to come from the "evil" government.

Americans tend to vote for the person who benefits their pocketbook the most. Bush gave us 52 Months of uninterrupted economic and Job growth. That's a record, under Clinton it was 38 Months and under Reagan it was 48 Months. Reagan held the previous record.

What's funny is that you people over there in Europe, on average, live worse off than almost half of the people we categorize here as 'poor'. Things like, France claiming to have the best Health Care system in the world, then 14,000 people die because of ineptitude and the lack of widespread Air Conditioning, something that 98% of the middle class here have and 78% of the so called poor.

Go on with your backwards ways, thinking your more educated and better off than us. We know the real score.
