    Texas is being run by really shitty people.

    Curts and other opponents of the bill say using taxpayer dollars to pay for things like private school tuition hurts public schools financially.

    “If vouchers pass, it would obviously take money away from our public schools, and our public schools already don’t get enough funding,” Curts said. “We need more, not less.”

    Class solidarity is essential.

    Without division and confusion among the working class, the oligarchy would crumble to dust.

    One of the most interesting things I’ve seen as I’ve gotten older is (good) stuff I thought could “never” happen is happening.

    This is cool.

    The people who fight hardest for vouchers are those who have to use shitty inner city schools. Maybe we should listen to them instead of patronisingly talking down to them about their needs.

      Those schools are not getting the support they need, that’s the problem. The people causing that problem are trying to sell you a solution that they can profit from.

      Vouchers, in that case, are a stopgap, not a solution. We need less stopgap and more solutions.
