So would that look like pulling all say from the states and putting all funding, policy, etc. at the federal level?

I deleted my reddit account and fully moved here. Also giving mastodon a try, though I never got into Twitter.

It does seem that way with the tax credit and school choice push. Is the DoE the answer or could it be handled better at the state or regional level?

Agreed on both. How would funding work then? Should it be handled at the state level, by U.S. regions like New England or the Mid-Atlantic, or should it stay at the federal level?

I wasn’t previously aware, but apparently, Canada leaves it up to their provinces to decide. Interesting that they perform so well when their system sounds similar to what those pushing for state control in the U.S. want.

Is the administration deliberately cooling the economy to suppress wages and make U.S. labor more competitive for reshoring? Is that the endgame for these tariffs?

Sounds like you're describing social democracy. They push for diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Thanks for that info

Interestingly, I was just trying to have a conversation about this at https://lemmy.world/post/27067695

Curious what people think is the right way to address education in the U.S.

Sure, that would be the assumption. What are your thoughts on the ebst way to handle education in the United states?

That was the thought for USAID, as well, and that seems to be turning back around.

Edit: here's a recent article I just came across....

As a long time 95 Toyota pickup owner, I understand.

Progressives need to co-opt the Democratic Party the same way the Tea Party and MAGA took over the GOP. Build a base, win primaries, and force the establishment to move left or get out of the way.
