The confluence of societal and governmental factors leading to these outcomes is an irredeemable tragedy. Nobody gives a fuck about education and the consequences are accelerating
It's so tragic. Because I've always wanted to be a teacher but where I live they get paid so so bad I literally couldn't afford to do it since I have to take care of a few relatives. Like maybe if I lived alone and spent nothing.
I keep dreaming the US will see things like this and actually improve education. Pay teachers more, give them the resources they need in the classroom, focus on actually educating etc. then I'd be on it in an instant
A foolish dream in this hell of neolibralism And religious fundamentalism
