Long ago as a business manager for a composite mfg (we made a few parts for the stealth bomber and the army) I picked up govt. cost accounting. When the company was sold to Bauer (carbon fibre hockey sticks) I went to work for a DoEd contractor that researched and created new school curricula.
Most of you know, I'm a pretty liberal guy. I firmly believe that Education is the silver bullet to many of society's ills and problems.
I can just as firmly say that, at least back in the 90s, that the DoEd is the biggest waste of money in the govt.Huge sums ($50 million in our company annually) were spent on research (good research I might add) that was shelved and never used.
What was interesting is the DoEd people could manage billing, were intelligent, etc. the DoD people were among the most stupid I've ever met in my life and screwed up nearly every monthly invoice for 2 years.
