What is Mike Huckabee smoking?When Mike Huckabee was governor of Arkansas, he figured out that it is cheaper to pay for college tuition, room and board and books than it is to sentence a person to prison.
The choice, he told about 950 people at a Billings fundraiser Tuesday night, becomes how people want to invest their money: in a solid education or a tax bill.
"It's your money either way," Huckabee said at the Billings Christian Schools Spring Banquet. This doesn't make any sense at all. Money for prisons is a shared expense. Money for private schools is not. Now I'm all about investing in schools rather than prisons (and, along those lines, Montana definitely went in the wrong direction in the 90s and has some corrective work to pursue, as does our entire country), but I can't figure out the sense of his argument.
Beyond that, I'm not really sure why Huckabee thinks private parochial schools are better than quality public schools in preventing lives of depravity. I suppose he can do that, but making the kinds of arguments he does makes me pretty skeptical of the strength of his own education. |
