20/20 STORY EXPOSES PUBLIC SCHOOL NIGHTMARE

I hope you saw this. It's high time we demand change in our public education system and stop letting our children be used to put money in the pockets of unions that fail to produce results!

From the story: Jay Greene, author of "Education Myths," points out that "If money were the solution, the problem would already be solved … We've doubled per pupil spending, adjusting for inflation, over the last 30 years, and yet schools aren't better." He's absolutely right. National graduation rates and achievement scores are flat, while spending on education has increased more than 100 percent since 1971. More money hasn't helped American kids.
