No accountability, simply throw money at a problem to fix attitude. The sad part is that once they tax the residents and businesses out of the city, it will be very hard to get them to want to come back. One other note, this article does not take into consideration that MPS has something like a 30% truancy figure too. It should be shut down or taken over. Declare a state of emergency, break the teachers union, consolidate the schools, fire the board, and contract this out to a 3rd party management firm. This is exactly why I left the city.
