The Biggest Issue With Education

"Education nowadays seem like they're leading their
students to a dead end education that
leads to a dead end future."
What is the biggest issue with education in America today? Is it the teachers? The principals? Or is it the decreasing amounts of money the government is giving education every year. The last one sounds more like it. it's weird how education in America was viewed as part of the big American Dream everybody outside of the United States wanted to dream about. Basically if you go through school and go to college and get a degree, you're  all ready for the rest of your life. Apparently enjoying where you work, get married, have kids, send them off to college, retire with your Social Security check, and have fun with your grandchildren. Really that should have a little fine print saying "Results may vary." Someone isn't guaranteed the supposed "American Dream" the U.S. use  to and probably still try to convey. You're not even assured with a degree either. I mean, education doesn't even seem to be a top priority on the government's agenda. Education is constantly getting cut every year and it doesn't seem to get any better as the years go on. So why is education always being cut? Well, ask all the governmental officials who claim they're all for the American people. Lately it seems like that seems to be untrue. How are our future leaders going to be able to get the best education possible so they could help run the world when it seems like not enough money will be able to be in the bank of education; less money= less essential tools and materials for the classroom that is very much needed. Once again, what's the biggest problem with education? MONEY, MONEY, MONEY!

  1. Yes yes yes yes yes yes. If some of these, and I mean it when I use my air quotes, "Government Officials", put some money into the education system instead of their own pockets then maybe America's education system would not be as whack as it is currently. If only some of our "Leaders" realized that our current generation is the one who is going to be filling their positions when they have passed on. With this lack of funds for education..it is going to be a scary future for generations to come.
