More does not always equal better. We can't afford to waste education dollars. We have to identify what's wasted so we can concentrate on what works. Elementary and secondary education must be child- centered. We need to get away from grand bureaucratic approaches that boil down to filling out paperwork and complying with regulations issued by agencies in far-off Washington.
New spending equals new taxes.
We need to realize that every dollar collected by the federal government and spent on the Washington education bureaucracy is one less dollar available to parents and teachers and state and local governments to educate their children.
