We have all been complaining about the poor educational system; keeping it with the people who failed it and throwing more money at it certainly can't be a good thing. I'm sorry, but I disagree. Keeping it local enables it to be more closely monitored by the community. Keeping it local also keeps the tax money in the community instead of redistributing it all over the state. I presume keeping unions in place would be a good thing as well. Remaining in state control encourages statist agendas and poor curriculum.

There would be far too much bias. We need this to remain in state control not by individual school systems or county government.
