I don't see how we need the federal government involved In natural disasters or education.    The reality is that education is a local issue.   I would even give a little to the big government people and say it can be a state issue.    But the reality is that it should be a local issue.

The reality is that education is NOT a local issue.  What makes you say this?  The need for a well educated work force is important to every US citizen.  Also the need for people educated enough to get gainful employment and consume, consume, consume is critical to our economy.

Also please explain why the federal government should not assist in re;ief for natural disasters.  Even if you don't care about human death and suffering the impact on the economy would effect everyone across the country.
