Why have we not gotten rid of this department yet, when it costs 67,200 Million per year, and in its own words is only for...
1.Establish policies reguarding federal financial aid, administers, and monitors those funds.
2. Colects and oversees research on americas schools, and gives this info out.
3. "Identifies major problems" in schools,and "focuses national attention on them".
4. Enforces federal anti descrimination policies reguarding school and loans
The same ed.gov site then ends with
("Under the Tenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." Nothing specific is said about education in the Constitution; therefore it falls outside federal authority.")
WHY DO WE HAVE THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION STILL!
