Paid to go to public school???

[Klayton]

OK, just wanted to give us all a change of pace here.

Today during my clinicals (read free labor) I was forced to watch some liberal BS on the boobtube in the lunchroom. The topic:

They are now PAYING kids to go to public schools in some areas of the country to KEEP them in school. WTH, I am sorry but my tax money should NOT be going to this BS. Obviously a democrat program to enslave, I mean buy future votes. :mad:

What say you? :confused:

I say, with them getting free lunch, free phones, free rides and now getting paid to go.......its a win win for the left. A win freakin win.....here's to the future! I am sooooooo glad we are considering home schooling the boys.....

And I bet a dollars worth of junk silver that these schools are in the metro area of one of 7 major U.S. cities, maybe in the central and eastern time zones?

What say you? :confused:

If I said what I really thought about this debacle I'd probably be kicked off the forum, so I'll do like Mama said and say nothing at all.:mad:

I believe this nonsense is taking place in Cincinnati. I saw the superintendent on television, attempting to justify himself, but instead he seemed to be out of touch with reality. He did seem to be a nice fellow, but this program is ridiculous. The cost for this one small district? $40,000!

We probably pay their parents to sit around and do nothing also.

I teach fourth grade in a public school in NC. The entitlement attitude is very present even in the kids this age.

Lord have mercy on us all!

So his justification is that 90% of them live in poverty???

Last time I checked liberal democrats added free lunches, then added free breakfasts, what the heck is next, free dinner and then we will PAY your kid to eat their free school meals instead of eating at home with welfare freeloading mommy?
