This talk about "Education Reform" is nothing more than politicians' double talk designed to further put Feds in control of the education system in the country. And that is usually followed by spending more gazzilions of our tax dollars on God knows what with very little to show for.

This is just continuation of Bush's idiotic idea of "no child left behind" nonsense.

"Education Reform" is (or should be) simple.

1. Abolish Federal "Department of Education".
2. Get the Federal Government out of the education business. How the hell did this country managed to educate its young people before 1979, when "D of E" was established?
3. Revert all of the resources (in the form of tax breaks) used by USDofE to the states. It is states' responsibility to educate its students.
4. Let folks at the state level petition their governors, senators, assemblies regarding any education related issues.
