I’ve also seen US teachers spending hundreds of dollars out of their own pockets to stock classrooms.

I spent a lot of time in European schools and I’ve never heard of teachers having to stock their own classrooms or fundraise for things like playgrounds, etc.

      This is by design, keeping the mass dumb makes it easier to trick them

      Our schools are generally purposefully underfunded and hardly anyone any Conservative with any real power gives two shits, because indoctrination is more important than education to Conservatives.

      There, now that’s a much more correct statement rather than that both-sides bullcrap.

        For universities, sure. But not for US public elementary and high schools. They’re just poor.
