Interesting how the Department of Education needs 20 billion dollars in a month when they run a grand total of 0 schools.

uh huh. would you propose that they just walk away during the summer? give them over to bums and insects? not use the buildings to generate income during those summer months (which they do)? not develop curricula?

do you have any idea what you're talking about?

they never stop 'running' schools. not for one day. sometimes they don't have their mainline students in them, that's all.

never taught anything, have you?

It's not just the summer. The Federal Department of Education operate 0 school at all times. They own 0 school buildings, and serve 0 students. Education is state and city responsibility. I pay my fair share of taxes to support my local schools. I also understand that the share of my federal tax that goes to the Federal Department of Education do not support any of my local schools.
