1. Desvío de Fondos Públicos y Vouchers Escolares.
Gran parte de la conversación se centra en cómo los fondos públicos destinados a la educación son desviados hacia instituciones privadas, religiosas o charter a través de programas de vouchers, percibidos como un "fraude" o "malversación" que beneficia a los ricos y socava el sistema público.
- School vouchers are sanctioned embezzlement of public funds into private pockets.
- Its an outrage that any public money goes to private schools. A true governmental disgrace. Why should people who cant afford private schools be funding rich people who can? its so backward.
- They gave billions in taxpayer money to private schools, most of which were already serving wealthy families. Ninety percent of that money didnt help a single public school student.
- Private or religious institutions should not get public money.
- Voucher schools are for kids with the same kind of parents as loriloughlin. Buying their dumb ass way in, but with your tax money.
2. Extorsión Política y Financiamiento Universitario.
Se discute la presión ejercida por figuras políticas sobre las universidades, amenazando con retener fondos federales o grants a menos que adopten agendas específicas o firmen "pactos de lealtad", lo que se interpreta como un ataque directo a la independencia académica y un acto de chantaje.
- Trump asks 9 colleges to commit to his political agenda and get favorable access to federal money.
- This compact is more like an invitation to borrow money from the mob, with substantial control and future penalties assured.
- Mit has a 27.4 billion endowment. Whats the point of having fuck you money if you never say fuck you? good for them.
- The universities gain nothing by agreeing to pay out huge amounts of money to the trump government and surrender control over curriculum, admissions, and hiring.
- The white house is asking nine major universities to commit to president donald trumps political priorities in exchange for more favorable access to federal money.
- You never give the bully your lunch money hoping hell go away.
3. Precariedad de Educadores y Falta de Recursos.
El archivo subraya la insuficiencia de fondos para la educación pública, lo que se traduce en bajos salarios para los maestros, la necesidad de que los educadores gasten su propio dinero en suministros y la falta de recursos básicos, incluso a nivel departamental en la educación superior.
- I never want to see someone seriously argue that a school cant afford to do something ever again. They can always find the money.
- I hate that i feel obligated to warn them and their parents to be very careful about any public institution simply on the grounds that the money isnt there to provide them the accommodations they need.
- I dont even have money for a water cooler anymore.
- Teachers spend so much money out of their own pockets to get students the supplies they need.
- I scraped by for years. One major setback would have derailed the plan. I had untreated cancer. I simply cant afford doctors to care for me until i run out of money.
- The disheartening thing about working in education is that it feels like there is no more money to be made.
4. El Impacto en Estudiantes y la Deuda Educativa.
Se critica el modelo de negocio de la educación superior, donde los estudiantes son vistos como clientes o fuentes de ingresos, lo que resulta en matrículas exorbitantes, grandes deudas y una percepción de que la educación es un producto de consumo.
- I hate framing education as customer service, or as a product to be bought.
- I would prefer if that werent the case. I would prefer a serious, spirited defence of the kind of subjects that are relentlessly under attack. But in practical, real terms - its students own money, fuck off.
- I really dont think people realize that i see all of this that its the biggest fuck you possible to do something like this to your teacher. Im one person, not a big corporation. I have a child. That money feeds my family. Ugh.
- I am amused by the school choice nonsense... It takes money away.
- I loved my time in school and extended it as long as possible to spend time thinking, reading and writing and avoiding real life, but boy is there some dark stuff happening at these institutions that charge students obscene amounts of money.
