We need that money in our own country to help our schools, Medicare and education. Don’t you care about our neighbors and communities?

That money won't help our neighbors and schools when Iranian nukes start hitting our allies and eventually us! That is their goal as they have stated for years!!

If it even needs saying, the Military Industrial Complex is the MOST bloated budget of the entire federal budget. If our current "completely-in-over-his-head" Def Sec + idiot prez hadn't started a completely unnecessary war, we would not have depleted stores of weapons and this be on nobody's radar!

Ka San, You sound like a radical liberal. Guess you'd rather have nukes start flying around in the middle east and then closer to home in a couple years.

As a tax payer and resident of Deschutes County I am tired of my tax dollars being used to clean up the filth the homeless people leave behind. If this is a deterrent for them living there then we won’t have to clean it up again. Thus saving tax payer dollars and the rocks are a better look.

With covid and the governor lowering standards for graduation, a standardized test is necessary . We need better educated students and graduates.
ReplyI don't know if standardized tests are hurting a certain group of students, but I do know that socially promoting certain students who fail to learn basic life requirements, like balancing checkbooks, reading, etc., is doing them a big disservice. Bringing back civics, PE, tool shop is a good idea.
ReplyI go back & forth on this subject. With the standard set so low for students due to the pandemic. It seems scary to have children behind in the basics. I’m from Ventura, Ca since the early 90’s. Things in Oregon back then seemed way behind in the school system.
ReplyThey are passing kids that can barely read, do math or write!!
ReplyAbsolutley especially important since lockdowns...our children's education has suffered, and we need to get back reading, writing, arithmetic and foster critical thinking once again.
ReplySchools should have stayed open during the pandemic so yes I think standard testing is nessesary
