Feeding the Beast, LAUSD the Economic Engine of L.A.?

5.13.2011....Just drove by a elementary school in Chatsworth,CA to see teachers protesting. For every indication, they got their marching orders from the union. It's a real disgrace when teachers are more concerned with maintaining their highest salaries and benefits package instead of staying in class to teach our children. You know these teachers are convincing the children to tell their parent to vote "YES" on Jerry Brown's tax extensions. They are holding the kids hostage with this matter

I think that we need to know exactly where the money goes completely by showing how it was spent the time s prior to this time and made to be understood completely as well,not to undermind those who pay taxes but did not pay good attention in school ,not just the a,and b students and employees but those that did not graduate with honors,so we all have the understanding and need not to go to far to get understanding.I have a good job but I am not complete in understanding .

The construction cost per square foot at LAUSD is higher than necessary. Money is distributed by political motives rather than on what is the best deal for students. Contractors that have repeatedly gone over costs are frequently rehired. There is too much political grease. There are $Billions flowing in the system with political insiders regularly scooping out their share - hurting students.

I can't actually believe that these are the only comments to this blog,shows us ecatly who is paying attention in this state.not only are they hurting the state by ripping it off and the students but so we are too,and we need to pay attention for them and they need to know what is going on so they can fight back and ask wheres the beef/money what did you do with it?
