Education bill George W proposes is not what the new economy wants. Public schools are based on real estate taxes locally. The verification process of students' achievement records are limited by the equipment the schools can provide locally. Whether it is computers or sports equipment, the local real estate taxes limited the schools and its pride and achievement. ie., Golf professionals all use magnum drivers to put the ball on the green in two strokes. Without the fancy equipment, their performance is merely amateurish. Therefore, the federal government instead of punishing the town with poor real estate; they should provide low interest loans to get the best equipment for those schools which are behind in their budget. Good schools raises real estate value; and real estate taxes can always pay back low interest loans. As far as vouchers for private schools($1500) are concerned, it is damaging in several aspects. One is brain drain in the town. The other is depletion of federal surplus for a few privileged individuals. Good students are needed in schools which are behind in the learning process to have good students collaboration with the poor students. George W. Bush started on the wrong foot because he does not understand human nature. Punishment never gets the standards higher. You have to provide the necessary funds to improve schools. On top of that. you have to build up pride of a good school with all the good equipment for teaching. It is not the teachers, but it is the preparation of the teaching material on the computer that helps students who are poor in understanding of terminology used in their text. Tax cut and other matters will be discussed once Bush proposes or the administration reveals their plans.
