Buying school supplies is something I haven’t thought about for so long that it never occurred to me that it’s unusual or that there’s a better way to distribute school supplies.
What’s even more nuts is that this goes for teachers, too. It’s skilled labor, requiring years of college, in demand practically everywhere; yet the pay is shit and part of it has to go to stocking your classroom.
Meanwhile, the school board members just voted themselves each a new, fully-paid SUV.

Sometimes, the school board just assigns themselves new “recreation centers” on school property that are for themselves only with administrative bowling alleys and the like and just about no one else even gets a chance to look in those very important allocations of scarce resources.
What the fuck? That’s a new one I haven’t heard before. Where I grew up even if the admins skimmed every last cent they could there wasn’t anywhere near enough money going around to build a bowling alley regardless of who was allowed to use it.
