1. There is a vast right-wing conspiracy to bludgeon the concept of public education, one of the greatest ideas to emerge from the American experiment. Indeed there is a conspiracy to end anything that smacks of a ‘public good’. The larger agenda is to privatize everything. The problem they will eventually deal with, however, is if there is a greatly diminished public sector and nobody is paying taxes any longer, who will pay the bill for their financial losses and their military-industrial machine? Currently, they have it both ways, profits remain privatized but losses are foisted onto the public sector. Same things applies in education. The private sector trumpets their reputed successes in educating the wealthiest households while leaving the poorer families in public education, taking away their resources, harassing the teachers, and then carping about how lazy and stupid are the teachers and students.
