to the business community
what exactly am I as a business owner suppose to do to help kids in school? I pay my taxes. Do you want me to pay more (I will, but it’ll quickly put me out of business) Want me to teach the kids? Ok, but again, I’ll go out of business. and I pay the teacher to do that.
erm..why do I have to pay taxes if I don’t have children?
“...the business community also needs to be challenged to make the public schools better.”
If it wasn’t for you guys, we wouldn’t have our debt, the air would be clean, people would love each other, and the New Zealand earthquake would not have happened. Get used to it - you guys are the ONLY ones they can attack with impunity. As to your question - yes, you guys can dump more money into the corrupt and failed system.
But in one case you guys do deserve some blame (and you guys being the Chamber of Commerce). GET OFF THIS AMNESTY KICK, PLEASE. It will kill America just as it’s killing Europe. I know that you guys need cheap, reliable, labor...but even so - most of you guys have kids. What they hell type country do you want to leave them?
