Yuck

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality.

While you guys are sorting this out here's another aspect of 'Murrican Greatness.

Schools can use the money for construction costs, rent payments, buses and even property insurance. Never have so few stolen so much from so many.
