I’m not saying any more because you obviously did not read all my earlier posts where I made perfectly clear I was talking about children being educated. If you won’t read my posts then don’t comment.
So we’d still be paying for it through taxes then…?
Of course. If all other developed countries can do it surely the richest country on the planet can.
OK, so nothing has changed in your argument then. You said no child should pay for school and that the government should. We would be supporting schools via taxes either way, so I’m not sure what you’re trying to get at.
What don’t you understand and by prolonging this you are staying off the topic of the thread.
I’m trying to figure out where you’re coming from (since you brought it up…) School should be free…covered by taxes. That’s exactly how schools are funded, just a different bucket of tax money.
Forget it. You would have to read through the thread again to see which poster commented and I replied to. I did not bring it up. I responded.
Nah, I’ve read it. Was looking for clarification on you reply.
My clarification to another poster was school should be free and the government should pay (taxes).
OK, so the way it is now. We’re clear, no more needed.
Nope. In the US, governors don’t “rule”, they “govern”. Much like the President doesn’t “rule”, no matter how much anyone who holds the office might wish to.
Tell that to the Governors who shut down Churches, schools, and businesses.
Your statistic is flawed because the outbreak is a dynamic event and deaths early on before we knew as much as we found out later should not be counted the same as deaths that occur later. So a more relevant statistic is the trends. And right not the covid hot spots with the worst continuing outbreaks are Florida (Republican governor), Arizona (Republican governor), Texas (Republican governor), Georgia (Republican governor), and California (Democrat governor). See a pattern there? In the meantime, New York, which was hit the hardest early on due to international travel, had only 6 deaths yesterday, and has averaged less than 10 deaths per day for the last two months. But Florida had 174 deaths yesterday, and has averaged over 100 deaths per day for the last month. The trend is clear. New York, with its Democratic governor, is having only a fraction of the deaths that Florida has been having for the past month. Of course you will want to throw in those deaths from April and May when New York was the hot spot. But they learned and got it under control. Florida did not.
Who utilized the power granted to them by the state?
And New York spread COVID-19 to other states.
