I don’t think it’s hard to understand. You create Common Core to sell textbooks. Then, 5 years down the road and it’s obvious it is not working, you print some new textbooks with new corrections and sell those.
What that works a bit better, but not good enough, you print more textbooks with more corrections.
Do this about 5 more times and pocket $200 billion dollars just to return to where the whole thing started.
That is precisely correct.
And educational software and laptops, which is the computer industry's interest in this racket.
Yep, Windows Windows XP, Windows 7. Create something flawed, so you can sell another slightly better or fancier version later. The suckers will eat it up.
