More Star Wars references because I know that’s why you come here…
MICHAEL CHERTOFF Major General Maximillan Veers, the Director for Homeland Security, has tightened the pursestrings on the federal money that New York City hoped to receive to help us combat terrorism. NYC needs that money because we are in a war against terrorism, Darth Maul G DUBBZ said it and I believe it.
This unexpected dearth of federal funds puts NYC’s mayor MICHAEL BLOOMBERG in an interesting predicament. With capital construction projects already underway and other essential services like the Police, firemen and emergency responders already accounted for where will the money come from to buy new school books? That is surely the area that is most likely to be pinched first.
Education funding continues to be pared down until there are almost no monies to purchase critical supplies that school’s need. Rich parents that send their children to public schools will help supplement the schools when the need arises, but working and poor families children with be punished to repeat the lifestyles of their parents.
The struggle to secure a decent education in this city is the next battleground. Can you blame these wealthy parents from objecting to the influx of less well off students sharing space in the same facilities as their children.
our education system will always place poor against the rich. especially, when we as a country don’t look at the poor as a viable future investment.
it doesn’t help that we can’t provide even the bare minimum for a crappy education.
again, great pics.
