Mum and Dad are Watching over Education

As the $14.7B infrastructure spending on schools rolls out the feedback is starting to trickle in.

Only a government can give $7B in value for $14B of outlay. It happens because only approved 'mates' are allowed to do the building. When the administration, junkets and plaques are factored in the money dwindles to about half its value. So that $2M hall becomes a $1M hall and so on.

Communists love plaques. They want everyone to see that they had something to do with buildings and structures in general. Red Mother Julia has been like this for most of her life which is why she has to attend all the openings and to make sure that the plaque has her name boldly embossed on its face.

She can then turn up in her government car, smile smugly and wave like the Queen bestowing her benevolence on the masses before racing off to the next photo op.

Little does she know that history will not look kindly on her and many of the plaques will be defaced to show what people really think of such behaviour and wasted resources.

There is still a lot of life and world altering behaviour left in Mum and Dad however and just how badly we will all be affected is yet to be seen.

Sadly one of the results will not be a better Educations system or better education for our children. All they will get in the short term is a shiny new plaque.
