A Tokyo court on Monday fined Mitsubishi Motors Corp four million yen ($37,000)—the maximum under the law—for failing to register recalls and secretly repairing vehicles in a scandal which has tarnished the image of Japan's fourth-largest automaker
Now you know why government oversight is necessary...........to avoid coverups like these and Bridgestone-Firestone.

<<Mandates without funding. >>

What was interesting here was the funding was promised. The forms filled out and oked. Numbers checked and double checked. Funding that came through $0.00.

<<Special education mandates are crippling schools according to my wife who is a spec. ed. teacher. >>

Special education has taken on a whole new meaning. It should be called special program for whiney assed parents who never paid attention to their kids. I'm all for special ed for the handicapped and retarded and can't even comprehend the patience needed by those teachers. Your wife must be a Saint.
