Former Vice President Joe Biden promised to increase pay for teachers in public schools located in low-income communities by tripling Title I funding at a speech to the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) in Houston on Tuesday.

The leader in the race for the 2020 Democrat presidential nomination introduced a number of additional education policy proposals designed to win favor with the burgeoning #RedforEd teachers movement. Biden did not say how much his proposals would cost in total. If enacted, they would potentially increase federal spending on K–12 education by at least 75 percent.

Because Department of Education policies are working so well.

We've produced three generations of functional idiots.

How did anyone ever get educated in the dark ages before billions in spending by the Department of Education? Another great Jimmy Carter achievement.

Throwing money at education is like trying to make a car run better by installing neon lights and a bigger subwoofer.

Libruls be like: "That's a great idea!"
Libruls get their severely decimated paycheck b/c you're helping subsidize the teachers shitty academics: "Wait, I didn't know it was going to come from MY paycheck!"

Houston ISD is an absolute clusterfrick when it comes to education and process.

And it's not even necessary. Pandering for already guaranteed votes is a losing strategy imo. You have to get through to the fence riders and the not satisfied with their candidate voters if he wants to have a chance at winning.

This is a perfect example of throwing money at bad results. The US education system hasn’t improved a single metric since the inception of the DOE .... but let’s increase their budget by 75%
