Public Policy: Votes affect, shape events of the day

We live in a culture in which the average citizen is more concerned with who is judging American Idol, who was just kicked off Dancing with the Stars or simply prefers to sit back and watch Survivor than in staying informed about the state of our republic and civil liberties.
Given our apartheid public education system could it be otherwise? Presently schools are more segregated than they were 15 years ago. The ridiculous and convoluted “Robin Hood” system of school funding in Texas Red is little more than institutionalized madness that encourages “rich” school districts to hold on to the millions of dollars allotted for “poor” school districts.
