I believe the problem isn't with schools (considering the funding public schools get they should be able to easily afford college level texts) but the problem lies in american students who use so much more yet don't produce results up to match with each asian countries ... |
That's not what's happening here.
See my post above. You think they are bribing senators like Rubio with money for milk and cookies?
No. In the USA, education is becoming increasingly a for-profit big business. Huge business actually. Billions of dollars of profit to be made. By gutting the public school system and forcing people to have to pay for even elementary to high school, there are lobbyist groups that are backing DeVos that stand to make billions of dollars.
Just like the US college system, in which to get a decent degree, most kids end up going into monstrous debt that are paying off until their 30s in many cases, and that debt carries interest charges which equate to huge profit for someone.
