Obama Bucks Not Going To Teachers As Promised

Unless you are a member of the mainstream media, this probably doesn't surprise you.

“As schools handed out pink slips to teachers this spring, states made a beeline to Washington to plead for money for their ravaged education budgets. But now that the federal government has come through with $10 billion, some of the nation’s biggest school districts are balking at using their share of the money to hire teachers right away.

It’s anyone’s guess where the $10 billion will go now. Or the other $16 billion that was supposed to be directed to the state’s Medicaid programs. Of course, tapping into U.S. corporations investing in foreign markets, and cutting food stamps in 2014 will pay for this latest “special interest” bailout. Right? While Obama and Pelosi continue their record deficit spending, some how the “trickle-up” process doesn’t seem to be working.
