You might also dream of being elected president. So you do something truly innovative. You're gonna expand school vouchers, and you're gonna let parents decide not to send their kids to woke indoctrination centers. They can even stay home with the kids and homeschool them and get state money to help assist with the education of their little ones! School supplies, all of that nice stuff, right? Why should the parents have to provide the learnin' stuff that those woke indoctrination centers typically provide? It's only fair, and what could possibly go wrong? https://popular.info/p/disney-tickets-ps5s-and-big-screen Oh. Florida parents are taking advantage of an expanded school voucher program championed by Governor Ron DeSantis (R), according to messages from private Facebook groups obtained by Popular Information. The private Facebook messages reveal how parents are using the new Personalized Education Program (PEP), which provides about $8,000 annually to thousands of homeschooled students to get taxpayer-funded theme park passes, big-screen TVs, and other items with an attenuated connection to education. PEP is limited to 20,000 students for the 2023-24 academic year but will expand dramatically in future years, increasing by 40,000 students annually. In one exchange posted in a private Facebook group last month, a parent inquires if anyone has had luck getting passes to Disney World approved through the program. Another parent responds that she was able to get passes for Disney World and Universal Studios paid for with taxpayer funds. How many parents did this? 3? Private FB messages? And who’s to blame there? The parent or the Governor? Do you have the same outrage (this is fake but let’s pretend you actually care) over folks that abuse or profit off government “welfare:” QUEENS — A former Queens job center supervisor was sentenced to nearly two years in federal prison Friday for helping to steal $1.8 million from taxpayers through schemes that included using food-stamp benefits to purchase and resell Red Bull, officials said. Cherrise Watson-Jackson, 45, was supervising a job center in Jamaica in 2012 when she got recruiters to enlist people to apply for public assistance. The EBT cards would then be used to buy large quantities of the energy drink from BJ’s Wholesale Club, which were then resold to neighborhood grocery stores. https://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20161007/jamaica/cherrise-watson-jackson-red-bull-scheme-sentencing/ Nope.

So let’s move to 100% private school and kill the failed government education sham all together. No more room for fraud. what you people fail to ***** realize is the problem with deadbeat parents is you can not force them to be good parents. But you can provide a means for good parents to get their kids the best they can. you want to rescue kids from garbage parents with the state? Fine, tell me where to donate. But stop stealing everyone’s money and delivering a ***** marginal product where no one wins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course my point is that when you want to create a program that hands out money, you've got to think about what could go wrong. And when you create a program without much in the way of internal controls because you want a quick political benefit, lots of things do go wrong. 32 minutes ago, Doc said: Just goes to show you that you can throw all the money you want at a problem and some will still do stupid ***** with it.
