Hmm, ok. I dont think they agree its complex, they haven't demonstrated as much seeing as how they refused to acknowledge it but had ample opportunity through numerous posts, but I guess at least you do.
But throwing money? I didn't realize we ever did throw money at the schools. And certainly if we did, it wasn't a whole lot (relatively) at any time. I thought we merely funded them, as we do other public resources and institutions.
Well seeing as how we are on the verge of fiscal catastrophe, we might as well burn half the city down, the poor black and Hispanic parts specifically. Now that's my constructive hypothetical scenario.
