I didn't know that there was such a push for each county to only have one school system.

If that's the case, how in the heck does Catawba County still have 3 different school systems?

It’s been a long time and I don’t remember all the details as to how it works, but IIRC the state doesn’t have any control over the number of districts in a county. The savings by centralizing the administrative functions was the main drawing card for our plan. I figured there were probably a few counties that hadn’t adopted it yet.
I grew up in Hickory and I would have thought Catawba would have adopted it. I can’t figure out why they would still have 3 districts.
 
He is tweet storming today on a range of topics. I put the anti-immigrant stuff in the Immigration thread.

Some others (merely a sample):

Yes, JD, Kamala Harris wants to enslave you by giving you healthcare and making college more affordable and protecting you from the devastating effects of climate change and bring manufacturing jobs back to the United States and invest in crumbling infrastructure especially in rural and underserved places and make prescription drugs more affordable and protect your children from getting blown to smithereens by semi automatic rifles in their kindergarten classrooms, you know all kinds of Marxist communist socialist bullshit like that. I’ll speak for everyone who is a normal human being when I say, if that’s the case, enslave the fuck out of me. Enslave me harder, in fact.

That’s a “two-lane road” situation.

The Chapel Hill-Carrboro School System (CHCSS) doesn’t want to merge with Orange County Schools; Orange County Schools don’t want to merge with Chapel Hill-Carrboro.

Chapel Hill-Carrboro residents don’t want a merger; Orange County residents don’t want a merger.

Why? Orange County would have to increase taxes and spending to CHCSS levels OR CHCSS would have to decrease spending levels to Orange County levels.

Neither is happening anytime soon.
