A better solution to the
A better solution to the problem with the schools would be to get rid of "No Child Left Behind". That unfunded mandate is what is causing our schools to fail because the teachers have to teach to a damn test instead of teaching to the basics. The tests also do not take into account that some kids just do not test well. There is no help for the kids that just need a little extra boost to actually grasp things. It took me 6 years to get my child into Title 1 for math, now that he is there his test scores went from 208 to 220. We are focusing so much attention on the tests that we are forgetting the basics.
Another thing, parents need to take responsibility for sitting with their child while they are doing their homework and making sure the student is doing it and understanding it. If the child is not understanding it then it is up to the parent to get to the bottom of why. It is up to the parent to go to the school and advocate for their child. It is up to the parent to call a meeting with officials and say what are you going to do to help me (us) get this child where he belongs.
Stop putting the failure all on the teachers and put it where it belongs....the parents, the students, the system, the government and fix the problems versus putting a bandaid on the problems.

You have a really low threshold of "massive".
Interesting. If you listen to people today, no one at all voted for Baldacci in 2006. It must have been rampant voter fraud that got him reelected by that whopping 38%. But don't feel sorry for ol' John. He got a cushy government job, with lots of nice bennies, in the Pentagon, screwing up health insurance for servicemen and veterans. He got the job based on his stellar track record of screwing up health insurance in Maine for everyone.

of course their is fraud.
So what. That's what I meant by Mr. Nachman's letter meaning almost nothing. Of course, there is fraud and some undocumented immigrants will benefit from fraud. So. As long as thee Government does what reasonably can be done to control fraud it isn't an issue because no matter what is done the cost of proventing the fraud will exceed the benefit of preventing it. What sensde does it make to spend $100 t save $95.
