        Why not give to public schools to improve public education?

        Because they can control the content if they create their own schools. This includes history and religion. Wink.

        Meanwhile, Red States continue to dumb-down their citizens by cutting everything they can from schools. Red States depend on federal money to support their state. Means more money in the pockets of crooked politicians.

        They have been doing it in many Hurricane affected areas as well. New Orleanians were not fans. It ended up causing many old teachers to lose their jobs. They got a lot of teach for America people, and it turns out a stakeholder in the charter was also a big guy in Teach4America.

        Filling schools with turnstile teach for America resume builders. The most vulnerable kids need experienced teachers who care about their community. Inexperienced educators each year flooding classrooms helps ed. Corp. not kids.

        6. Only in education does this happen. Why? Because there is ABSOLUTELY no respect for what we teachers know & do. EVERYONE has a better idea. And when those better ideas fail, EVERYONE blames ... you guessed it. The teachers.
