Not sure how it works in the usa but successive governments in the UK have cut educational funding for. ..........
Wild birds!
I have several bird feeders in the garden, lots of nice **** and other birds feed, but starlings are greedy and take the lot!
So, I put up a sign saying 'no starlings to feed here '
But they ignore it
It's obvious that they can't read and I put this down to cut backs in the education system.
The Robin has a dish of his own and respects this.
Do you have the same problem in the usa and other countries?
I believe wild birds have wings to fly and they can manage on their own , easily migrate from one place to the other, for sure even without the budget they can fend for themselves and learn how to survive
what the government should focus on is to put budget on more important department such as education , health, agriculture and infrastructures. But I guess people needs to be educated well and be taught good values. The government should put funds on issues that concerns the needs of the majority. I am thankful now that our new President Rodrigo Duterte is answering the needs of the people , he just put a very big budget on education where the public schools nationwide received a big budget/funding, such a big relief for people who can't afford to send their children to school because of higher tuition fee, now it's for free. Lucky are those countries who have leaders with a good heart. If there are still corrupt people in the government , no matter how big is allotted to every department, it would be useless and will just go to the pockets of the greedy people . I know and have seen how government officials and their accomplices manipulate the budget. Anyway, education per see is not just knowledge from the book that we learn from school, people should know how to educate their HEARTS and MINDS , now that's what needs more funding
I was only wanting some funding to teach them to read not fly the space shuttle
Ooh wow Mikey, what a commendable act of charity
though I must say educating people so they could learn how to read is useless, for reading without understanding is futile he or she has to comprehend every words being read for it would be like reading an empty book with meaningless word , nothing to gain for an empty skull. And remember not all birds have the ability to read and comprehend, but there are some who has the ability. You have to be grateful if you put the fund on a bird who can fly a space shuttle you might find a good surprise you'll be lost in space oh this bird could surely fly and can sing too....
"Flying Without Wings"
[Shane:]
Everybody's looking for that something
One thing that makes it all complete
You'll find it in the strangest places
Places you never knew it could be
Some find it in the face of their children
Some find it in their lover's eyes
Who can deny the joy it brings
When you've found that special thing
You're flying without wings
[Mark:]
Some find it sharing every morning
Some in their solitary nights
You'll find it in the words of others
A simple line can make you laugh or cry
You'll find it in the deepest friendship
The kind you cherish all your life
And when you know how much that means
You've found that special thing
You're flying without wings
So impossible as they may seem
You've got to fight for every dream
‘Cause who's to know which one you let go
Would have made you complete
[Shane:]
Well, for me it's waking up beside you
To watch the sunrise on your face
To know that I can say I love you
At any given time or place
[Mark:]
It's little things that only I know
Those are the things that make you mine
And it's like flying without wings
‘Cause you're my special thing
I'm flying without wings
[Shane:]
And you're the place my life begins
And you'll be where it ends
[Mark:]
I'm flying without wings
And that's the joy you bring
I'm flying without wings
