I always wonder why it is so tough to find data on say, high school diplomas per unit of money invested in education, or comparing like to like, schools in poor rural areas tothe like in different states, or schools in inner cities, or school in upscale suburbs. I wonder how rich areas that get heavy federal subsidies nonetheless, like Seattle or Baltimore compare to Jackson for number of HS diplomas per total $ spend on HS education? Now if Jackson gets more bang for the buck, and is poor and thus cannot tax it's own tax base (like MD can), why wouldn't the needier, more efficient system get more federal $?
