The hilarious thing is that they compare dekalb to decatur to prove structural racism.

Dekalb spends 12,341 per student.

Decatur? 11,718.

By the way - I had to google those numbers. Yellow journalism does not inform, does not provide facts. You have to do that for yourself. 

It's not what you spend. It's how you spend it (and who you spend it on).

Baltimore, MD pisses through 21,606 per student - and insists that racism is the reason their student can't read and can barely even commit murder with a loaded gun in their hands.

I didn't see it as a racism problem, but more of a poverty issue...problem being, most of the **** school districts are in the ghetto...

But I'll bet these kids are full of information about trangenderism, the "climate crisis" and Black Lives Matter.

Very true. Even as a kid, I learned more at home than I did at school. It comes from a family that values education.

The opposite is true in my family.
I luckily had (at that time) very good public schooling in my home town.
My parents were left behind me very early on...

Self-initiative, motivation, etc. These are HUGE factors.

Both sides of the equation have about the same influence on a kid's future.
One may overpower the other so easily.
Please seat yourself.

at the low income high school here in Reno.. they have a truancy rate that far exceeds the others. I would say that it is difficult to teach and therefore impact the life of a student if they are not there. Also.. lots of drugs connected to this school. Teachers can't stop the students and their parents from being the consumer, seller, or manufacturer of these drugs.

It is neither about racism or about poverty. 

It's about ***. 

Baltimore MD gets twice the money per monkey, but it is stolen by blue state silver backs. Even if the gorillas did NOT take that money into the mist, it would hardly elevate the zoo animals to studious pointdexters. Urkel is FICTION.
