[QUOTE="Bradskii, post: 77658965, member: 412388"] Sounds like more should be spent on education. We should check to see who does what in that regard when they're sitting behind the Resolute Desk. From here: [URL="https://www.brookings.edu/articles/president-trumps-education-budget/"]President Trump’s education budget | Brookings[/URL] President Trump’s proposed budget for fiscal year 2018 calls for a [B]13.5% spending cut to education[/B] across K-12 and in aid to higher education. [LIST] [*]President Trump’s budget also proposes a [B]number of significant cuts to programs [/B]that fund higher education and that provide financial assistance to low-income students. [*]Pell Grants—federal financial aid for higher education— are expected to be funded at a stable rate. But other programs could see cuts. Notably, the federal work-study program, which allows students to pay their college tuition through part-time jobs, [B]would be cut in half [/B]under Trump’s proposal. [*]If the federal work-study program were funded at the proposed level, it would be the [B]lowest level of funding[/B] the program has ever received since the Department of Education began to administer it in 1980. [*]The Trump budget also proposes [B]cuts to career and technical education[/B], which could potentially put a higher burden on state policymakers to make up those funds.
