The issue is there have been no tangible benefits to these massive entities that just keep growing. No value, cut. Wow, not one benefit. Well, you've clearly researched this, so who am I to argue with you. I see you will need to be harmed in some way, for you to believe. When your health is compromised by regulations on food additives being removed, or when your water is no longer protecting your teeth, or when you breath toxins because regulations on exhaust have been lifted, maybe then you will understand. The guy Donald will put in charge of the agencies that protect you from the corporations of the past that put harmful chemicals in your food, your water, your medicines, doesn't believe in science. Thinks everything is a conspiracy, just like you do. And the losers of what is about to happen, will be the lowest earners in our society. People like me, who have both more money, and are more knowledge about what is healthy and what is not, will be fine. YOU are the ones that will suffer. I think the greatest irony of all this is that I choose to sacrifice my entitlement for the benefit of people like you, it is literally the foundation of progressivism and liberalism, but you are so convinced that EVERYONE is only looking out for themselves, that you are actually willing to harm yourselves as long as you continue believing that people like me are in some way going to suffer. We're not. Financially, at least, I'll likely prosper these next four years. You are FORCING me to accept my entitlement, lol, while you bear the brunt of policies that work against you. Freon What was us education ranked in the world before the dept of education. What are we ranked now. How many people are employed by the dept of education and what is their annual budget. What is the stated mission and goals of the dept of education when formed. Have they met that? |

Two minutes, five seconds. You are such my bitch. Quoting a woman from a 1997 Kevin Smith movie might be the most cringe thing you do. That's not a low bar. You're in your 40s, right? LOLZ! Took you long enough, and it's a good movie. You're still my bitch, too.  |

What is the stated mission and goals of the dept of education when formed. Have they met that? You, as usual, are asking the wrong questions. WHY was the DoE created? What was it like before? What is its history? And which country in the world has the leading schools in it? Which has the highest technology? The best medicine? The most inventions? The most significant discoveries? The best military technology? Your questions are looking for a problem, instead of seeing the outcomes that already exist and are easy to spot. You don't like DoE, because you want RELIGION TAUGHT IN SCHOOLS. It's always been your goal, and even though a religious education stifles the very science that created the technology you are reading this post on, you would still destroy it, because you choose only to see it as an obstacle to that religious goal. Pathetic and self-destructive. Freon |

Donald is NOT a negotiator. He's not a politician. He cannot use his existing skills in the position of president, because that is not how legislation is implemented. It's the same with Musk. Our government operates around consensus decision making, NOT unilateral decision making, which both men are used to. So what I expect is a mess, as two round pegs try to fit into square holes. They are not going to reshape the holes either, because even THAT requires consensus. Which means all you have are promises by two people who cannot deliver on them. And as they experiment on our institutions, the benefits you doubtful don't even appreciate from them will be removed, all in the name of making government smaller, instead of increasing the those benefits in a more efficient fashion. The winners? Donald. Elon. Other billionaires. Corporations, as regulations that keep them from harming you are removed. The losers? You, as you pay more for goods, have fewer choices and privacy, have less privacy and freedom, and have less protections from the same people and corporations you adore. Freon |

Freon What was us education ranked in the world before the dept of education. What are we ranked now. How many people are employed by the dept of education and what is their annual budget. What is the stated mission and goals of the dept of education when formed. Have they met that?
Here are the answers to your questions:
**Historical Rankings:**
* Before the Department of Education was created in 1979, education performance rankings were not directly
comparable to today's standards.
**Current Rankings:**
* According to the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA):
+ Reading literacy: The US ranked 27th out of 78 countries in 2018.
+ Mathematics literacy: The US ranked 28th out of 78 countries in 2018.
+ Science literacy: The US ranked 24th out of 78 countries in 2018.
* According to the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), the US has performed below average in
reading, mathematics, and science compared to other developed countries.
**Department of Education Employment:**
* As of May 2020, there were approximately 72,000 federal civilian employees working within the Department of
Education.
* This number includes:
+ Federal student aid administrators
+ Elementary and secondary education officials
+ Higher education administrators
+ Research scientists and policymakers
**Annual Budget:**
* The Department of Education's annual budget is currently around $70 billion (FY 2022).
* This includes funding for:
+ Student financial aid programs (e.g., Pell Grants, Direct Loans)
+ Elementary and secondary education programs
+ Higher education programs
+ Research and development initiatives
**Department of Education Mission and Goals:**
When the Department of Education was created in 1979, its stated mission was to "improve the quality of elementary
and secondary education" and "increase student access to higher education." The department's goals were outlined
in the Department of Education Organization Act (DOEA), which established the department as a cabinet-level
agency.
Some of the key goals included:
1. Improving academic achievement for all students
2. Increasing access to higher education
3. Enhancing teacher quality and training
4. Supporting innovation and reform in education
**Have they met that?**
While the Department of Education has made significant progress in some areas, it is fair to say that many of its
goals have not been fully met.
* Academic achievement: Despite efforts to improve academic performance, the US still struggles with issues like
achievement gaps, poverty, and teacher shortages.
* Higher education access: While more students than ever are pursuing higher education, there are still
significant disparities in access and affordability.
* Teacher quality: The department's efforts to support teacher training and development have been ongoing, but
many educators argue that teacher quality remains a persistent issue.
* Innovation and reform: The department has supported various initiatives aimed at promoting innovation and reform
in education, such as personalized learning and competency-based assessments.
It is worth noting that the Department of Education faces significant challenges and complexities in achieving its
goals, including:
* Bureaucratic red tape
* Limited resources
* Diverse state and local education systems
* Evolving policy priorities and debates
