In my community parents work hard 8-12 hours a day and still attend to PTA meetings, parent/teacher conferences, volunteering in the classrooms, doing whatever it takes. At the same time we pay our county taxes and feel good about it. Until, some liberal comes along with a dumb idea like this. He wants to spend our tax dollars on rewarding laziness and incompetence. It would be like paying money for a weekly Slopper News.
Let’s see in Knox County we spend nearly $8,000.00 a year per child for public education. After a k-12 education Knox County taxpayers have invested $104,000.00 per child. If a parent can not recognize the value of what the taxpayers are investing and can’t spend some sweat equity into the process. Then so be it. They can just stay at home eating their Cheetos (no offense to Cheetos) and watching Jerry Springer or Maury Povich guessing which one of the 6 daddies is the father.
Once a socialist, always a socialist.
Let’s refrain from name calling. That may be welcome over at the liberal blog. But not here.
