okay this board is called Anarchy in the Us right?  Well the fucking 
government hasd screwed me over royally tonight...no I'm not gonna bitch 
about taxes or health care, or even the police...no i'm bitching about my 
fundamental right to an education...okay here's the story...
Currently i am a 16 year-old highschool drop-uot who has been attending 
night school funded by a district about 30 miles away from my house.  I 
have never attended public high school in Illinois except for now but 
because of tax laws my parents still have to pay for someone else to go to 
school in my district...fucked up....anyway, I was told tonight, along 
with aporx. 50 other styudents in my hs completion program that the state 
fucked up once again and twisted some surveys thatr  other students took 
last fall and told our district that if they didn't pay for a bunch of 
stuff that we "said" we wanted that they were going to shut down the state 
funding of the program..well needless to say the district doesn't have the 
money for the new stuff ( stuff we don't want and don't need) so about 
50-60 people were told tonight that we can no longer go to school.  in my 
school we had teachers and it was free allowing single moms and the poor 
to get a diploma and better their lives.  we are the only program in the 
area that has that kind of a program...all other ones are correspondence 
or something else.  our was the best... well anyway if anybody knows of 
something i can do to get my dreams back let me know   or let somebody 
know about this atrocity and help us do something about it....thanx
