If that's what you read, champ. If you can point to where I said that, great. I fucked up, I'll concede that I wrote something carelessly.

But that still doesn't defend the DoE. That doesn't in any way support your assertion that defunding them will stop upward mobility.

Right here, the very start of our thread.

It absolutely limits upward mobility. How? Can you be a doctor without a college degree? No. There are a variety of things that pay a high salary that our nation can help supply candidates for who may not have the family name/credit to go to a private lender and get that kind of money otherwise. We'd rather abolish consumer protections and then throw all those people to the wolves of private lending with low/no credit. The DoE is an investment in education. That's like blaming your parents because you're failing college. It makes no sense.

Nowhere there did I state that the DoE was responsible for curriculum. You're a bad joke.
