Just so everyone is aware Baltimore is 2nd in per pupil spending. This is not because the schools dont get enough money. In fact its just about as far away from that as you can get.
If despite getting the 2nd more funded, your students still can't do high school math, then the problem isn't about money, it's probably about corruption, gangs, fatherlessness, teacher unions and lack of school choice.
This is also not exclusive to Baltimore. Money just disappears from these places.
Everyone I know who works in the government themselves tell me how inefficient the government is and how much waste of money there is. For example, they have built the regulations in such a way that a hammer you may be able to purchase for $10 will cost $50 for the government or military.
Forever feeding it more and more money while they keep spending it without any benefit to people does nothing.
Look at what the US just did. 2 trillion dollars wasted in Afghanistan and then left 83 billion dollars worth of tax payer funded military gear for the Taliban. You want to give them more money?
How exactly is paying more taxes ensuring "companies selling medicine aren't killing people" or "companies don't dump toxic waste into rivers and lakes"?
As for schools:
