For Ted and RWE, are either of you fine men for Head start program. kentay
If you do a little research you will find that the government itself has reported that the Head Start program has little or no lasting effects.
Basically, if you had two kids, one had Head Start and the other didn't, the Head Start kid would enter preschool more prepared and do better but by the time they hit first grade there is no difference. Seems like a waste of money to me.
But more importantly, the federal government has no authority to fund such a program. States do. The 10th Amendment says that all power is granted to the states except for those powers specifically enumerated in the constitution. You won't find Head Start mentioned in the constitution.
Under States Rights the Blacks would never had gotten their rights all over this country. It has always been used for some people to control others. I am for the concept of Pre-Kindergarten education and standards for all children at tax payers expanse, are you? It we really love children and want them to succeed it starts at birth. What is so distasteful to me is some people care more about a fetus than a born child. kentay
