Throwing money at a problem often doesn't magically fix it.

LOL Wish people thought that way about funding national defense.

If those getting all that education money just "threw" it at problems then I would agree with you.

But I rather doubt that is all they do.  Few educators see money as the only problem; but since funding is what enables them to address other problems, it has to be a central concern.  And any proposal which evens out inequalities in funding throughout a state's school district ought to receive serious evaluation in light of current research on the relation between school funding and achievement.
