Up for Subsim Debate: Defunding the Department of Education

DoE is a drop in the bucket when compared to the entire federal budget. Taking money away from Pell Grants and other student loans when the price of higher education in this country is rising at double and triple the rate of CPI inflation in order to do next to nothing is a tremendously wasteful, not to mention harmful bout of navel gazing.

If you're serious about reforming the DoE, then you start by scrapping garbage like NCLB and enacting a pay for performance system for teachers.
