america will cheer him on and people will say "thats how the government should work" but when lebron starts doing that for 30 million children across the country let me know.. he'd be broke in about 5 minutes even with his money.
its a very nice gesture and the small amount of kids that go to this school will be very lucky i have no doubt but this can only be done on a very small scale. the social media tards will be all over this. "lebron for president.. socialism for all"..

He did it for the city he grew up in Akron Ohio. So why the fuck he gona do across the country?
So it's definitely a good thing for the kids.
Many celebrities are doing donations, charities and other political stuff. For example leornado decaprio and his environmental stuff and no one is screaming "4 president".

Because LeBron has become political so his side will run with that shit.
Again though it's a very cool thing he's doing. I'm not shitting on that at all. Just the people that will run with this and twist it to fit their argument.
Yes Bouncer, we should spend $711B bombing the shit out of countries that have done nothing to us, and giving tax breaks to billionaires that already have more money than they can spend in a hundred lifetimes. But free school? No siree ... who can afford that?
Do you know that a Zumwalt class destroyer costs $4B? And get this - a SINGLE round from its deck gun costs $1M. One round. How many kids can we educate for the cost of one round, B?
With messed up priorities like these, it's no wonder that among developed countries, the United States is dead last virtually every education and knowledge metric there is.
Listen to me. Other than some oddities like Luxembourg and Brunei, the United States is the richest country bar none. It's not even close. If we say we can't afford something that actually benefits the people, like education or universal healthcare, it is because we CHOOSE to piss away our tax dollars on other things.
Yeah Bouncer not sure what you're getting at here. We spend so much god damned money on the military we could build tens of thousands of free schools.
Also, Keep in mind that LeBron paid to open the school and he paid to make it super nice and cool & will pay for the perks, but the teachers salaries and the money to maintain and run this school will come from the typical places where all public schools get their funding. It's a public school at the end of the day.
Washington’s "enormous" military expenditure only amounts to 3.5 percent of GDP. Money wise it might be the most but according to gdp US expenditure is behind Saudi Arabia, Israel, and Russia.

Come on Chuck.
US spends more on military than next 8 nations combined
U.S. military budget inches closer to $1 trillion mark, as concerns over federal deficit grow
The U.S. Senate on Monday voted to give the military $716 billion for 2019, approving one of the biggest defense budgets in modern American history despite concerns from some economists and lawmakers about the rapidly rising federal deficit.
The 2019 military budget, approved by an 85-to-10 vote, gives America's armed forces an $82 billion increase from 2017.
The military has called the additional funding necessary to improve its ability to respond to international crises, while critics say Congress should not be giving a significant boost to spending at the Defense Department at a moment of relatively diminished U.S. military involvement around the globe. About 17 percent of America's $4 trillion federal budget goes to the military, according to the Congressional Budget Office.
One thing I will say is that the US could do a better job at being efficient with spending of all kinds including military. They need to streamline the government to run like some of the great companies in this country. I realize that running a massive government must surely be more complicated then running a company but you cannot tell me that things can't be made far more efficient then they are now.
