I love it when Leftists bemoan Leftism.
It's better than watching arabs blow up arabs.

Instead of your long winded thoughts on how to FIX the statewide singular BOE, how's about you champion County/City schools systems. Hawaii is the only state that has a statewide system without county/city/districts. It was big-govt centralist Leftists in Hawaii who thought that up. Now they are all frustrated with it.
Hawaii is also the state with the highest private school rate (for "regular" people).
Ever wonder why?
Nope. Like all socialist, it's never the socialist worldview that's wrong. Nope, its always one of three things:
Need more $;
Need another program (more $ too);
Need more oversight (which is more govt folk)(which need more $).

So creative. Ironic, as all the artsy-fartsy folk affiliate Left. So much creativity and yet so much normative group think.

The only thing that makes life bearable in the DPRH is watching Leftists fight Leftist over Leftist failures.
