Why?

Good question. The number of reasoning minds on both sides continues to dwindle. I can limit myself to providing information, but with non-reasoning minds, information that doesn't fit the shape of the spaces in their head is simply discarded.

For example, I lost track of the number of times I've posted numbers showing that we are spending far more per student now than we were years ago, with smaller class sizes, but with no appreciable change in educational results. Yet the only response we ever hear from the education industry is that the all the problems could be solved with more money. You'd think you'd only have to make that point once, wouldn't you?
