You're not gripping reality here. It always helps. Using less water means we have water for longer. Running at a deficit of 10% vs 5% would make an enormous difference. It would extend the water we have now as we identify ways to mitig

So split it in half. Imagine living in a world where we say "it's pointless! don't do anything, it's all out of your control." That's what we always say. Imagine saying to someone losing weight "don't

It's hard to argue that something that took until the 1920s to complete is decisive. The American Indian wars didn't end until 1924. That's hardly decisive.

Again, I'm just asking for actual data, I'm not invalidating your claim, I'm asking for real support of it. I pointed out the Wikipedia article's citation links to a 404 - so I can't even validate (nor did you.) You

There's obviously a threshold - some amount of expenditure is needed. You need a certain amount of capital. Obviously we're past that point at many places, and not enough in others. But if the underlying issue is poverty outside t

Investment clearly works across all facets of our economy. It could work, in schools, too. But our society will never allow for what it really takes to adequately use the funding given to it. It's not surprising students did better as

The numbers you cited also have a citation that leads to a 404 and are only for 1 year, in one specific state. Hard to draw any reasonable conclusion from that.

We have very clear evidence money solves a lot of problems. Why doesn't it work here? It works everywhere else in our capitalist economy. In any case the difference is quite clear. If a school in a rich suburb doesn't get much fed

Internet education can't work for the primary reason: not everyone is WFH. Most places are asking for more to come in. But many jobs require you to come in. So that right there eliminates it. For the lucky that can WFH, they need to de

Poverty is a better analysis than political lines. Most of the best school districts are in purple districts. The worst ones are in heavily red or heavily blue districts, largely correlating with poverty.

The cushy easy jobs in great school districts don't have vacancies. There are plenty of jobs in "bad" neighborhoods where you'll be endlessly abused.

Quality is hard to prove. Everyone thinks they're "quality." The fact is most people are average. We freak ourselves out about these very few super teachers or super devs but most are not these people and they still need jobs
