Washington DC is already one of the highest-spending school districts in the country, and the results are abysmal.

Obama is not for Reparations, but he points out the dreadful conditions of the buildings of some public schools in poorer districts. Oddly, Kucinich is for reparations.

As long as the natives are running the inner-city schools, the facilities will be awful. But that's not why the kids aren't getting educated.

Because even if you had the best facilities in the world, what good would it do when 90% of inner-city black kids are illegitimate and are surrounded by crime and other social pathologies in their neighborhoods and homes?

The average pay of a superintendent is $350,000.

On average, the ratio of teachers to administrators in school districts is 2:1 and is approaching 1:1 currently.

Most of the worst school districts spend the most money.

...and Obama wants to spend even more? No, no, no. Spend the money wisely instead of squandering it.

Santa Clara Unified once spent $7M to build a private gym for the administrators. They then proposed a bond levy and cried poverty.

More money will just go to more projects like that one and NOT to where it should go.

But why not? Its not like its Obama's money. Spend it all! Drive us all broke instead of using the money appropriately. Start by firing most of the administrators.
