See, you continue to miss the point. Tenure is NOT the "touchstone." Absence of market forces on the administration is. Doing away with tenure does NOT drive up prices for conservative profs---quite the contrary, it drives up prices for LIBERALS.

Again, the solution is not tenure---it's irrelevant. The solution is to eliminate all funding for STUDENTS. It begins, and ends, as with everything, with the consumer.

And this is not "unwinnable." It is realistic, and until you get a grip on reality, whining about tenure is a smokescreen for adopting policies that truly enact change.

Really... And the chances of that happening soon ARE.?. ZERO, of course..
Have about the chances of that happening as killing Social Security.?...
Inflaming the old entrenched brain washed socialists..

Nah!.. Attacking Tenure is the WAY.. It won't KILL the roaches but it does turn the light on in the kitchen scattering the roaches for the baseboards..

Abrogating tenure as sacrosanct in the education bible sends a message..
The message: We're watching you.. and are presently reviewing education spending in general and federal and state sponsored GRANTS in particular.. The very drama of it all will inspire many parents to review the dispensation of the funds they THROW at the people educating their KIDS.. Corporate sponsored GRANTS can be handled at a later time.

Because they cannot be trusted, that is the administrations cannot be trusted.. The "ENRON" of education has not happened yet.. Abrogating tenure although cosmetic it is still the Elephant with its nose in the tent.. THEN the "ENRON" expose of education just MIGHT happen... Heads can ROLL and the socialist cabal running the place can be eviscerated..

Did I say the "ENRON" of education.. Ah! yes.. I did..
I Want to be the first to use that term... and hopefully not the last..
(A Curly(Howard) shuffle, and a poke in eyes to you my man, [exit stage right])..
