Get ready for bible belt motherfuckers to be even dumber and there to be no standardized anything. What’s the point of having a federal government if you aren’t going to federalize important things like education?

Great! So it’s another blatantly unconstitutional order. Only Congress can cut funding to an agency or even change its name, let alone abolish it.

They’re going to be disappointed when they find out the education department is basically just student loans and doesn’t set education policy for K-12 education. They distribute grants to K-12 schools but actual policy is mostly a state and local thing.

Also, they run a continuing education system in DC. I took a course in Mandarin before a trip to China once. I didn’t work for the government but there were classmates learning Mandarin for national security reasons who wouldn’t even tell me which agency they worked for.

TL/DR: The Department of Education isn’t setting policy for elementary or middle or high schools.

I can’t wait for the poorest states (which are all red) to go bankrupt because parents can’t go to work because their schools all closed.

They want a large mass of imbeciles because they’re easy to control, and do the worst jobs for the lowest pay.

Rich people are rich, and therefore can afford the better private education.

This is what you voted for protest non-voters. Congratulations.
