In Franklin County Indiana, I think it's eighth graders who take a gun safety class. Who decides if there's money for that class, the county or some schmuck who hates guns in Washington DC who grew up in Chicago?
Will education be better under federal government control or will ideas that work get bogged down in red tape for years in committee meetings, studies and have to wait on congress to vote on it and use it as leverage for other things?
If an idea is great in Indiana but not California, does the idea get scraped because there isn't enough money to fund it since the federal government is "All or none"?
Many questions need to be answered before total control of education is handed over to the federal government.
I can already see evolution vs creation turning into a 4 year standoff if it hit the federal level.
