    you must be American, because there is a federal dept of education. Betsy Devos ring a bell?

    problem with having a federal department of anything is conservative agendas tend to “poison the well”.

    one way to combat this is department heads should be elected not appointed, and they should have term limits imposed.

      It’s nearly impossible to do anything good when you have a major conservative party set on doing bad.

      You could have a position of “We should provide food to all children so they can learn without being distracted by hunger” and people would be like “that’s communism i’d rather those kids starve”
