You're paying taxes to send Hartford kids to crappy Hartford schools. You're paying anyway. Is it better for those kids for you to pay (and it's usually cheaper by the way) for them to go to a goos catholic school somewhere? not if it hurts public schools. I'm not saying raise your taxes to pay for that. I'm saying, instead of paying $19,000 a year to send those kids to lousy Hartford public schools, why not pay $5k a year to send them to a terrific catholic school (my little guys go to a catholic middle school, price tag is $5k a year). Not suggesting any new taxes, just diverting a portion of what we're already paying, to deliver a far superior product to kids who need it. It will hurt public schools. How about we fix any problems w/public schools.

I think choice is a terrific idea. You'd rather doom those kids to failing sh*thole schools to make a political statement.

"Can you pls. show me an ad or a statement by any D. who has said we'll give you more cash if just have more babies? Bc I don't think that has ever been said."

Maybe it's never been said, but that's what welfare does. People on the take, The use of the words "on the take" cleary represent what Rs think of aid.figure it out. That's what the programs do. And the obvious side effect, is creating more fatherless kids.

Do you deny that welfare programs do this?So you think you get more money from the government than is the actual cost to raise children? What is the actual amount in aid a typical family gets?

"Bc the know that didn't do much for "black unemployment"

Oh. So democrats only stand when the president is single-handedly responsible for the good result".How about only standing when the Pres is honest and not lying?

When Biden brags at his first SOTU about all the jobs created, will the democrats cheer? Did he personally create all those jobs? Or was the economy opening back up again before he was sworn in? Same with the stock market. If he says "I alone did this" then they shouldn't stand. I know the Pres. isn't responsible for the job market or the stock market by fortunately/unfortunately gets blamed for them.

"So, no they didn't"

Please give me some meaningful measures by which black life didn't improve under Trump, compared to Obama. Race relations

We all know you guys all hate that blacks did well under Trump. But they didn't get better than Whites - regardless of the lies Trump said. But just because you can't stand it, doesn't mean it didn't happen.But I showed you that it didn't get any better for Blacks
