DARE TO END PROGRAM

The best reason for getting rid of the DARE program is that it takes
away 18 hours in a 90-day semester that could otherwise be spent
teaching children to read, add, subtract, multiply and divide, and
work with fractions and decimal points, all skills that are
hopelessly lacking in today's students.

If they spent less time getting socialized, multiculturalized,
environmentalized and having "fun," and instead spent more time
working hard to get an academic education that would serve them
through a lifetime, they wouldn't need to do drugs.
