90% of the problem is in the home. When you pay people to have single mother
families, pay them to have more kids, have people like you telling them that
the US is racist, that they can't succeed on their own, when you have black
rappers spewing out their crap, race hustlers telling them it's whitey's

poor people would have a choice too. Who's against it? Why the Democrats,
of course. Because they are in the pocket of the teacher's union.

the purpose of a school voucher system is primarily to take money from
low-income taxpayers and give it to the wealthy so they can have their
own private, segregated wealthy-people schools

More lies from the lefty, of course.

Or so krw like to think. If thinking is the right word to describe the way krw uses what brain he has.

where you have a $7K deductible is a great idea.  It was as fraudulent

  The problem with Obamacare was after the Obamacare regulations went
into effect, my families private healthcare plan had increases of 18.2%,
19.4% and 24% the following 3 years. We had a 67% increase in 2 years 3

 I prefer a high deductible, I think it lowers overall costs.
 In 09 i raised my deductible from $2,500 to $10,000 and lowered my
premium from $9,900 to $4,300. Then I opened a tax deductible HSA that I
now have about $48,000 in.

 Another problem, as I see it, the FIRE community (Financially
Independent Retire Early) loves it. They retire with about $1,000,000
(or more) live frugally on about $40,000 a year and get a full
healthcare subsidy, even though they are millionaires.
I don't think that is what was envisioned with the legislation.

Wrong again. You just accepted the totally faulty premise. Obamacare
subsidies are based on income and not only don't you get full subsidy
at $40K, the subsidy is gone for a single person if their income
exceeds about $45K.

If I had kids I would do ANYTHING to get them a good education even if I had to do it myself. And that would take some doing. Go ahead and home school, just know what you're doing. Of course some assholes used it to cover child abuse but what you gonna do ? I'd shoot them and take their kids, but that's just me. You hurt a kid around me and I will SHOW YOU what revenge really is.

How do you know they're getting a "good education" when there's such a
large profit-based incentive to tell you what you want to hear? A+. A+.
A+. Yes mr. jurb he's a wonderful student. that will be $5000.

Following that logic, Harvard, Princeton, Yale, MIT, all the private elementary
schools that the more affluent can send their kids to are just a bunch of
profit driven scams too. You libs never cease to amaze. The GOP wants
to give lower income people, many of them minorities, FREEEDOM of CHOICE,
so that their kids can escape failing schools, by going to a voucher system.. And this is your response.

"> The US Democratic Party were more sympathetic to the Civil Rights movement than the Republicans"

First of all that is bullshit. Can't listen to him.

Quick Google shows;

"The no vote consisted of 74% Democrats. Clearly, the 1964 Civil Rights Act could not have been passed without the leadership of Republicans such as Everett Dirksen and the votes of Republicans."

That's from a result, but anyone can easily check it. Even though democrats did control congress they opposed the CRA for the most part - 74%.

So JFK signed it, he was a republican at heart until that became a liability. But the fact is that he would have never even seen it to sign if not for the republican vote.

Another thing that people seem 6to forget is that democrats wee the party of slaves and were the impetus for our civil war. They were most of the slave owners and wanted to keep their property.

You know the way they lip service minorities now is another way of retaining ownership. No fucking jobs so you need government help, then when you do they assume you will vote for them because they promise you more.

"Sadly, many of the criminal bent minded folks know very well how to 'play' on society and 'whitey' any time they wish as civil societies are trusting and we must pay for what our ancestors did, and what a bunch of assholes supremacists are still doing. So some of them lower themselves to that level and kind folks get hurt on both sides. "

And democrats facilitate that. They do it for votes.

I have no great love for republicans but we are at which no democrat can be trusted. Sorry. We have one alternative.

But with things like affirmative action, which one prominent Black congress critter is against, at least, make the recipients weak. If you have to carry 100 pounds at work and someone else only has to carry 50 then who is the stronger ?

"And population densities and a few other factors weigh into this and the error in the old stats as well. "

For one, yes, population densities are very much at the heart of the matter. And who lived in the ghettos ? Who had five kids in a two bedroom apartment, feeding them on welfare ? And who didn't force them to at least have a Norplant at the first or second kid - or abortion ?

You are obviously against republicans, but you fail to see just how bad the democrats really are. The republicans are far from good, but the democrats are farther. you let them take power and you'll see. You will be back here with "Damn, if I had only known".

Hopefully that doesn't happen.

+1 to all that!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poverty_in_the_United_States

The income level used to define the poverty line has been inflation adjusted since it was originally introduced in 1964.

"In 2011, the Census Bureau introduced a new supplemental poverty measure aimed at providing a more accurate picture of the true extent of poverty in the United States. The SPM extends the official poverty measure by taking account of many of the government programs designed to assist low-income families and individuals that are not included in the current official poverty measure. According to this new measure, 16% of Americans lived in poverty in 2011, compared with the official figure of 15.2%. The new measure also estimated that nearly half of all Americans lived within 200% of the federal poverty line."

Much less whatever your precious 'poverty rate' means. Yet another

No shit Sherlock. Did I say otherwise? I said the DEFINITION of poverty has not changed. Only a clueless lib would somehow take that to mean
that the number has not been adjusted for inflation for 50 years.
That would be remarkably stupid, even for a lib.

Most secondary "education" is a scam. Those Parents just want their kids to make money and have connections, learning is irrelevant. In this case I would say they agree with the Parents.

Them's killing words. I am the farthest thing from a liberal as it gets.

>"The GOP wants to give lower income people, many of them minorities, FREEEDOM of CHOICE, so that their kids can escape failing schools, by going to a voucher system. "

I have always supported vouchers or some other means that would help people send their kids to a better school. The vouchers would kick in at a certain income level, above that I would support a tax deduction for those who pay primary school, and keep their kids out of the pubic schools which spend too much and get too little done. Useful that is. Another thing abut private schools is that they aren't necessarily the liberal indoctrination centers that pubic schools have become.

>"And this is your response. "

They can't have the poor going to good schools and making alot of money, learning real reasoning skills of a real profession.

Nobody would vote for them.

So I was right and you do have no clue about how much has changed.

It was quite obvious I was not talking about the fucking word

Two thoughts. One is that it's cruel to put a student into a school that
they are not qualified to be in, it will be pure hell, they may flunk out
or kill themselves. Better that they are in a place fit for their
capabilities. Second, I think the parents did this more for their own
bragging rights, than to make sure that their kids had the best education.
