Problems!---Problems!...Problems! (Solutions!?) Hmm!?

 
And, the “Problem”---is…?????
 
Several school districts in our home-state, our neighboring-state
and, probably across this great-land have decreed, via some “hired-
help” super-“intenders”(?), that the “educators” will go to a 4-day
school-week beginning next fall. People are outraged! Hmm!
 
What the “genius”-directors did not inform: 12-month continuous-classes!
(That conclusion is this writer’s opinion, not yet a fiat-complete.) Hmm!
 
So? Let’s take a gander at this “monumental”-pronouncement from “on-high”.
 
20% less school days!? Good! Sounds like a 20% tax-reduction on real estate
property dollar-“confiscations” along with 20% reductions in all faculty and
administration salaries and stipends. Sounds too-good to be true! Hmm!
 
Of course, these “elite”-erudite sophisticates do a “wonderful” job “ed-e-cating”
our students (look at test scores, ACT & SAT results). More-money is not the answer!
 
Been-there! Tried-that!---conclusion…utter-disaster! Hmm!
 
Our little district once sent the entire “school-board” (with administrators)
to the state capitol on a tax-paid (junket) for a “necessary?”-meeting!?
The attendees came home to “hay-seed” Podunk dripping with “culture”
that must have slopped-out on them filled with “fine-dining” tales and
NO-new ideas on bettering our educational-system. Such-acumen!?  Hmm!
 
One of the “impressed”-depressed members spewed accolades-of-grandeur
for the waiters at the gala-soiree who served the “elite”-gathering. Hmm!
 
“When the head-guy snapped his fingers all the white-gloved “peon”-waiters
 came to alert-attention serving their offerings like well-trained militia-men
in cadenced-splendor, every “clink” and “clang” of the dishes reverberating!”
 
Must have been quite the show-experience!?---Really!?...Hmm!
 
I said, “Proves we don’t need an “expensive” school-administration; at all!”
 
My “well-fed” classy-nemesis allowed, “They go to 'state' education-meetings!”
 
I countered, “Fire-them! Too! They do---absolutely…nothing!” Hmm!
 
So? “We the people…” gave them more-money (taxes). They spent $1.4 million on a
pond with a fountain at the new high school---and…the “hole” never held water! Wow!
 
Kind-a brings a tear to the neophyte taxpayer-eye!---sniff!...The Problem!?”Uhm! Hmm!?
