This attitude of so many "people of color" as they like to be called now, is that if you're not one of their tribe you have no right to an opinion. But of course they have every right to your tax dollars.

There's an old saying that says "You can't see the forest through the trees." Well there's a great deal of truth to that. So often we're so close to a situation we just can't see it as it is. Everyone has something they don't recognize in themselves that others are aware off.

Many of the problems of today both in schools and in society are being shielded or not exposed and dealt with by those that profit from it. FUSD, like all the other school districts in California, gets an additional 50% in funding for every ESL student. The total FUSD revenues for 2014-15 school year is $34,200,816 with expenditures at $35,417,144 (the $1,216,328 deficit is expected to decrease to $123,327 at the end of the 2015-16 academic year). Presently there are 3,773 students enrolled in FUSD, which averages a cost of $9,387 per student per academic year (9 months). This breaks down a cost of over $1,000 per month per student or $245 per week per child.
Areas with less ESL students and area with less poverty are receiving less than $7,000 per academic school year. Yes, it pays to keep them poor and speaking Spanish in California.
