No, it is all about the socialist agenda, money is a by-product.

She was just joking around, they were in a social environment.

Now, the information about the $ and publishing books is a different subject. There have been way to many instances of $ being sent out for contracts - especially the ‘green’ company scams - and now this.

Watching the video now - hoping he will make the connection on who got the publishing contracts.

If I remember correctly, Jeb! belongs to a corporation that makes money off the testing part of Common Core.

Yes, Charter Schools are a public/private partnership. He’s on the board of directors for charter school companies. So, instead of accountable school boards and property taxes going to public schools, Charter Schools will have no accountability and your tax dollars will go to a private corporation. Jeb Bush will make billions.

Accountable school boards? Accountable to government unions generally, not parents.

...Charter Schools will have no accountability and your tax dollars will go to a private corporation.

Charters are accountable to the parents. Is "corporation" a pejorative to you like it is to most leftists?

Charter Schools are privately controlled and operated. They operate like a corporation in that they have a Board of Directors. Don’t know about being a publicly traded company, probably not at first. There will be no school boards and tax dollars will be diverted to them. Have you ever listened to Charlotte Iserbyt (was part of the Reagan Dept of Education) or Anita Hoge, to name a few? Go to youtube and listen to them. Best interviews are on Caravan to Midnight.

Yeah, and so? They are for-profit or non-profit enterprises. They profit by delivering a service, education, that customers want. Or else they don't profit.

School boards generally don't give a damn what parents think, they serve the teachers union, who in turn fund the board members re-election.

There will be no school boards and tax dollars will be diverted to them.

So in your mind, tax money belongs to the public school/teachers union? It should belong to the student to be spent on the education they choose.

And don't imply that charters are autonomous, they have to meet state standards as well. The ones here almost all out perform the union schools in the 3 Rs.

Department of Education should be cut. Schools should be administered at the County or State level. Large Tax Exempt Foundations have been controlling education for 100 years. Look into the Reece Commission on Tax Exempt Foundations in 1953 and get back (theres a good interview w/ Norman Dodd on YT), until then I have to go. thanks.

from Michelle Malkin:

“Can you spell b-o-o-n-d-o-g-g-l-e? Remember: Bush’s educational foundation, the Foundation for Excellence in Education, is tied at the hip to the federally funded testing consortium called PARCC (Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers), which raked in $186 million through Race to the Top to develop nationalized tests “aligned” to the top-down Common Core program.”

I know of two cases where the director of a charter school evidently, mistakenly, believed that charter schools are a public/private partnership. They were removed.
