It's not broken, it's bent.
The rich have the luxury of having better schools, and all that comes with like better security, general digs and manageable class size ratios, good teachers and better equipment and funding, and the poorer counties, poorer districts get the shit end of the stick.
That's not the wealthy's fault, not even blaming them. Maybe the County Commissioners can answer to these issues better, but things are always better on one side of town vs. the other. Again, not the wealthy's fault. Not blaming rich people for being rich.
I'm always meeting a new foreigner who got his or her degree on the cheap in their home country, who are now here in America and are struggling to find work. On the other hand America has some nice Universities for those who are lucky enough to attend. It's not broken, it's funneling out the unwanted.
The Utah lawmaker is speaking against teachers, not education. He's making a blow at unions, not children. It's a lofty attempt, laughable even, but meh, it got him headlines. It amounts to nothing but message board banter.

This doesn't even include foreigners. This is an actual breakdown of American demographics vs. others rocking a 1 demographic for basically 100% of their makeup.
Point being, this is how much Murrica really sucks. Our education is bent, it's tipped in favor of the rich-just like every other country on this planet. Poland has great laws, great school districts, great vacation time for their employees? Well shit, they're only 38.5 million living there, making it the 34th most populous country in the world. I'm pretty sure they can afford it.
Your country has no people, and you're full of do nothings nobodies doing nothing for nobody except railing against those silly Murricans, and that's a great position to be in. I'm envious of you for
that. I wish we were more like what you wish for. The less America stays out of the world's affairs, the better. Just like in Egypt. We actually gave a lot less than many other countries in aid, but anything we give is too much for some. Understood, but that's an entirely different ball of wax. Anyway, let's stop sending aid that in turn buys more Boeing and Lockheed "goods and services" aka corporate welfare aka buying the vote, and spend that money on infrastructure and, yes, American schools.
"Let them handle it." That'll be the America they'd hate the most.
The American dollar is still the world's reserve currency. do you even care?
