Auntie Charo's Soapbox

So, does KUAM think this is news? I'm not dissing, KUAM, don't get me wrong. It's just like......this happens every year....like an anniversary thingy....confirmation that we hire stupid people and keep them working no matter how stupid they are! Once they're classified, you can't fire them!!!! Heck, it's only the kids that suffer anyway, what's the problem?
I have the solution to this whole school problem and I don't even have to run for public office...for Adelup or Sinajana or anywhere.....just give whatever it is you're giving GPSS(and fire all those people that are on the board-actually, disolve the board) and give the money to the private schools and tell them to take over the school system....in less time than you can say, 'jack be nimble', the problem will be solved....we won't even have to keep Jerry Cruz employed or his friends at Central that keep that empire going.
Guam is the laughing stock for the people in D.C. Once, it used to be easy to ask for money and get it. These days, the government knows that we're not only stupid, we waste it or over spend it or use it for something else and now, make us sit up and beg for it. Now, our true color is showing and we're no longer just a laughing stock, now we're a laughing stock and pathetic.
How can we run a school without school books? How can we actually look someone in the eye and tell them that we know what we're doing and at the same time we say that our kids are important, but, by the way, 'the kids will be needing school books because they don't have any yet'.....'oh, maybe they're cutting out pictures from magazines?'
Gawd, I'm so ashamed to say I'm from here, sometimes. When I visit the states, I pretend I'm from Nepal or India....Guam's pretty third world, the only thing missing is the human pedaled bike ride.
