The Solution To School Funding

After long deliberation on the issue, I belive we have a solution to the problem of school funding. If congress were to tie spending on the Iraq war to the school funding here at home, we would solve the problem of underfunding of our schools. For every dollar spent on the war, we could require a dollar spent on the education of our children ! Imagine the impact of such funding ? Hey, it may even end up with the government ending the war due to the fact they can't afford to fund our schools equally. what does this say about our priorities as a nation when our tax revenues can be spent killing Iraqis, building them schools and fire or police stations but nothing for our children. Build up our education system here - our children are our future not rebuilding Iraq. Our schools deserve to be funded equally to the war if not well beyond what is being spent on Iraq!
