Originally posted by Speedy Parker No, what they want is is for the billions of dollars that are being wasted by fat cat special interests groups in D.C. to be kept at the state and local level for more efficient and responsive management of our education system. It's so simple even wariat could understand it. If I send $1.00 directly to the school my kid is in that school gets the whole dollar. If I send that same dollar to the U.S. federal government it has to go through the IRS and OMB before DoE ever sees it. That means the other agencies are taking pieces of that dollar for their budget expenses of handling the dollar. Then the DoE takes what is left and starts the multi layer process of enhancementing that dollar back to the school my kid goes to. By the time it gets to that school let's be generous and say even half of it is left. Most of that $.50 is limited in how it can be spent by school according to the conditions set forth by those agencies which granted the monies. So now your local elected Board of Education has to do what the federal government tells them to do with your $.50 instead of what you want your locally elected officials do do with it.
You don't get how power works, that's why you're susceptible to being conned. -

2025-02-10 at 6:33 PM UTC"I had heard about the idea that men apparently process female voices in the auditory section of the brain, which also handles music but I’d not found the source of the research. It seems the University of Sheffield have done studies where researchers played recordings of male and female voices for a test group of males. What they found was that there were startling differences in the way men deciphered male and female voices in different parts of their brains. Their website says: “The female voice is actually more complex than the male voice and has greater natural melody. When a man hears a female voice, his brain analyzes the different sounds, in order to ‘read’ the voice and determine the auditory face.” In other words, when a female is talking, it’s not that a man isn’t listening to what she’s saying, it’s that he’s hearing it in a different way and processing it like music."

Yes, men process female voices in the auditory section of the brain, which is also used for processing music. This is because female voices have a more complex range of sound frequencies and natural melody than male voices. When listening to female voices, men use the more complex auditory region of the brain that processes music. What is your point? -
2025-02-10 at 6:44 PM UTC"If the U.S. Department of Education (DOE) were dismantled, it could have several negative consequences for students, particularly those in marginalized or disadvantaged communities. Here’s how:
---
### **1. Loss of Federal Funding for Schools**
- The DOE distributes **billions of dollars** annually to K-12 schools, especially in low-income areas.
- Programs like **Title I funding** (which supports schools with high numbers of low-income students) could be reduced or eliminated, leading to **larger class sizes, fewer resources, and lower-quality education** in struggling districts.
- Colleges and universities also receive funding and grants for research, student aid, and infrastructure—losing this could make **higher education less accessible** for many students.
---
### **2. Endangerment of Special Education Services**
- The DOE enforces **the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)**, which ensures that children with disabilities receive free and appropriate education.
- Without DOE oversight, some states may **cut funding or fail to comply** with federal protections, leaving **students with disabilities without critical resources** like special education teachers, aides, and accessibility tools.
---
### **3. Weakening of Civil Rights Protections**
- The DOE’s **Office for Civil Rights** enforces laws that protect students from discrimination based on race, gender, disability, and more.
- Without the DOE, enforcement of **Title IX (gender equity in education), IDEA, and Title VI (racial discrimination protections)** could be weakened, leading to **less accountability for discrimination and unequal access to education**.
---
### **4. Inconsistency in Educational Standards**
- The DOE plays a key role in **setting national education standards** and ensuring all states maintain a baseline level of quality.
- Without federal oversight, education quality could **vary significantly between states**, with some maintaining high standards while others fall behind.
- This could lead to **greater disparities in student achievement**, making it harder for students from different states to compete for college admissions and jobs.
---
### **5. Reduced Access to Federal Student Aid & College Grants**
- The DOE administers **Pell Grants, federal student loans, and work-study programs**, which help millions of students afford college.
- Without these programs, many students—especially those from low-income backgrounds—would struggle to afford higher education, leading to **fewer opportunities and lower economic mobility**.
---
### **6. Increased Privatization & Inequality**
- Without DOE oversight, education policy could shift toward **more privatization, charter schools, and voucher systems**, which may benefit wealthy students while leaving low-income students behind.
- Private and charter schools are not always required to follow the same accountability measures as public schools, leading to **widening gaps in educational quality and accessibility**.
---
### **7. Weaker Accountability for Schools & Colleges**
- The DOE ensures that schools receiving federal funds meet certain **performance and financial accountability standards**.
- Without this oversight, there could be **more corruption, misuse of funds, and fraudulent institutions**, particularly in higher education (e.g., **predatory for-profit colleges** taking advantage of students).
---
### **Who Would Be Hurt the Most?**
- **Low-income students** (loss of funding and resources)
- **Students with disabilities** (weaker enforcement of IDEA)
- **Minority students** (weakened civil rights protections)
- **Students in rural areas** (less funding and fewer school choices)
- **College students relying on federal aid** (reduced access to Pell Grants & student loans)
---
### **Conclusion**
Dismantling the DOE could lead to **greater inequality, reduced funding, weaker protections for vulnerable students, and inconsistencies in education quality across states**. While supporters argue that eliminating the DOE would increase local control, the **most at-risk students would likely suffer the most** due to decreased federal oversight and resources." -

No point, I just found it interesting. I watched this documentary about how movies brainwash people, and it showed that women's voices were purposely muted. An example was the main characters having a chat, and you could hear the men's voices near them talking, but not the women's voices whom were also near them talking. -

Originally posted by Dirtbag That's what the want, for children to work instead of go to school. They want teenage girls to have babies, that's why they've relaxed protections against rape at schools, they've made it harder for girls to have justice and said schools aren't responsible. Ending the department of education means there won't be student loans in future, they'll be offered by private companies instead which is a bad thing. It means colleges will be free to discriminate against applicants. The department of education never set curriculums, that was up to colleges. You need to go to school but you need to stay away from boys. Never be alone with them. If I were you I'd look into getting homeschooled by an international academy in preparation for escaping that country.
I'm for girls 16+ having babies instead of raising cats, but the problem is why the government wants that. It's only to repopulate so they can have a war with China. -

I've already covered how those billions would be more effectively spent at the local level. But what I haven't explained is the postive side effect that would have on the economy. What the Feds spend billions wastefully on cold be done for a fraction of the cost at the sate an local level with more accountability. This would lower tax requirements and free up more money for we the people, more individual prosperity for all.

See above. My late sister was born with cerebral palsy and went to a special needs school that still operates as a county school. My mother even served as a school board member for a few years. They always had their hands out to the feds and had to jump through hoops to get funding from D.C. The sate and county funding was pretty much automatic. File your yearly budget reports and proposals and get paid.

The states and counties can handle that cheaper and more responsibly. Deleting the DoE will not delete Title IX and the DoE doesn't enforce anything. They are not part of the DoJ.

The DoE certainly has kept things consistently since Jimmy Carter created it with a stroke of the pen the quality of education has consistently declined. Have you even looked at the numbers?

Again, this can all be handle by state run agencies at a lower cost. By the way, those grants and loans are the reason tuition costs keep rising and student debt keeps increasing.

Market solutions are always superior to government solutions. Just looked the colossal failure that was common core.

The corruption happens at the federal level. The state level is much more responsive to local oversight.

That is all just a rehash of the previously debunked garbage so see above.

Regurgitated copypasta nonsense. The funny part is you are arguing for the "patriarchal system" to continue rather than supporting it's dismatnlement and returning the power and money to the sates and the people. -

That's sick. They're often pressured to have sex at that age. Whether they want the baby or not, they're not ready for it at that age. They're not emotionally mature enough, they're financially stable, their lives will be over and their dreams crushed, they'll be stigmatised as single mothers or married and child brides should not exist. Abortion was illegal when I was in highschool and I didn't trust condoms so I didn't have sex. I knew I would kill myself if I ever became pregnant.
I haven't really noticed you cowboy but you've made an impression now. Now I know you're a rapist. -
