LEE KRAMER'S ROOM: With Views

...and it continues. I think Ramaswamy better quit while he's behind, he only digs himself a deeper hole at this table. Again though, he doesn't need to really make the numbers work for the American citizens, just has to make the political pandering story work and satisfy the required spoils going back into the Republican doners and backer's pockets.

MC: Ok your next biggest donors and the republicans you need to make happy to get the nomination. I apologize for not knowing the obvious.

VR:Our education system gets most of its work done at the local level & what we’ll do with the former federal funds is support parents to access better schools that teach children instead of serving their union clients. A novel idea, I know.

MC: “support parents” is far different than distributing 80b to them.

MC: if I’m reading your plan right, you end the DOE and reassign those functions to other departments?

You save 9b from closing DoE.

What I dont understand is why you think it will be cheaper and more efficient in treasury over education ? Particularly given the added dollar and time risk of moving it from one bureaucracy and adding it to another ? Isn’t there a real risk it could be more expensive and take years, requiring you to keep it in Ed till it can be moved ?

And maybe I’m reading it wrong, but you say you are reassigning $52b to the states. Isn’t that part of the $80b you said you were giving to parents ? And same with the 20b dollars for armed Marshalls. Is this not distributing the same money 3 times (parents /states/Marshall’s) ? What am I missing ?

And I’m not sure what you are doing in response to your position that 62b is going to loans /grants for college educations that are not offering a return to those students. etc. Are you going to stop them or ?

If you stop it , what happens to public universities when 62b is pulled from the market ?

Personally, I would rather see a single free 4 year school in each region.

I do agree with you that having states send money to the feds and then sending it back is ridiculous. Automating it so it’s just netted out is more efficient
