How to fix the school budget and social problems

One way I imagine of easing the burden on the public school system is to apply a concept that privet schools have. No we don't privatize them. We rent out class rooms after normal school hours are finished. We rent them out to people who want to teach classes at that school. Now hold on, just hear my idea out.

Lets say we rent a class room for 400 bucks. A person within the community could pay rent to use that room (not tax money) and teach a class. That person who chooses to teach the class, could charge a rate for attendants. So if 40 people are expected to show up, you could charge 10 bucks to cover the fee or more if the teacher wants to make a profit.

Now as for the subjects being taught, it would be up to the teacher. They would design the curriculum and the testing method. None of witch are dictated by state or federal government. People with or without a teaching degree could come in and set up class about the subject they want to teach. So long as it is within reason. Meaning anything that might derogatory would ban the person from the school. Now these classes could be unorthodox, simply because you would not find them in a normal public school. You could see classes that teach creationism, tie-chi, religion, politics from a point of view, or anything in between. Companies can even hire people to teach within the public school to fill a gap within their company. Maybe a union hall set up an agreement with a teacher, that if they teach a trade to the students, the students would be eligible for a job with the union hall and get good money.

No tax money would be used, and a set rate would be charged to pay for usage of the facility. The teacher would provide their own materials and teach the students their school of thought. This could bring in a decent profit to any school. Not a lot, but could lesson the burden by creating their own funds. The money would be added to their coffers and they can use it as needed, but will be treated as tax money. The only problem you would have is, what would constitute as a school sponsored club or a privet study class? Simply, if the school chooses to sponsor the club at the discretion of the principle as is now. The details would be worked out between the school and the teacher. The best part about this is that the community is finally involved more now than ever in the schools education. The school doesn't use tax money or award degrees upon completion of a privet study. The best part is that it even gets a new source of income to help keep itself a float.

700 billion you say? You'll have to burn me first!

So, did you hear the news? congress said no to spending 700 billion to wall street investment firms. I have mixed feelings about this. This is good, because it won't contribute to America's 10 trillion dollar debt. On the other hand, it could act as a catalyst. Stocks go down, people start withdrawing cash, companies start to fail because they have no investors. Then we have banks that might fail if people start taking money out of them. It could lead into another great depression. 

The Democrats have been crying this for a while now. A few years back when Republicans said the economy is looking good, and the Democrats where saying its on a rail road to hell. The Republicans where saying it was good, because the stock market was hitting a new high every single day! It was THE time to invest. However, later on we started seeing mortgage companies in crises. why? Because they gave out loans to people that can't afford them. Now because the companies can't get their money back with interest, we start see them asking for a bail out. Well, they got it.

The same thing happened with banks. They got a bail too. This also happened with the investment industry. The last two I would say where legitimate threats, that needed to be fixed. This one is different. People loose money all the time in the stock market. It just so happens it's going down with a noise dive. I don't advocate socialism or Marxism, but I think it was Karl Marx that said something along the lines of, The problem with capitalism is that it has a bubble and then it pops. The bigger the bubble, the bigger the pop. I'm starting to believe this.

I guess overall, I'm glad we didn't bail them out though. We only increased the national debt these past 8 years. We did nothing to fix it. If we can't contribute money to fix the national debt, then why would we add more on to it till we do? We would just be asking china for nearly another trillion dollars to fix our problem. If anything, it will force companies to be more responsible.
