Paying for public education

Since our Lotto was enacted the state has reduced its share of monies going into our schools. Every one dollar from the Lotteries' REDUCES the amount the state puts in by one dollar. Yet they still cannot pay a reasonal amount per student! Our kids suffer from mismanagment not from district administrators, but from lousy government.

Millionaire Teachers

They insist we pay increasing tuitions not to aid academics but to aid their Deans' pockets!

College aid

to assist Michigan families in furthering their kids education should not be a topic of discussion. ONLY with a properly educated citizenship can we climb out of this fiscal mess our "public" servants put us in. When our "public" servants are making three times the average wage a working man earns, there is something wrong. Average wages have been frozen or shrunken for over five(?)years now whereas our "public" servants enjoy a raise every couple years. For doing WHAT?!! With the proper education our future generation can see a clearer picture, analyze the situation, and KICK THESE BUMS OUT! Maybe the bums already realize this, hence, cut the money for education.
