Who failed the education system? The state? For it's share, yes. But, who is ultimately to blame? The people.
When women have six children who do not live with them by as many fathers and cannot take care of them, who is to blame? When sports casts a shadow over academics at our flagship university, who is to blame? When people who work in Baton Rouge then move to Prairieville only to commute back to work in Baton Rouge don't understand why money needs to be invested in public transit, sidewalks, street interconnectivity, who is to blame. When people who throw their trash out the window of their car (certainly in plain view of their children) see that as acceptable. Who is to blame? Seems like we need a statewide Katrina-style disaster to wash out the ignorance. Though I agree with you that the state is doing poorly for it's share, no amount of investment in our public educational system will succeed until there is a solid, worldly, educated class of people willing to invest their share.
