The Education Wars

Asshole Arne wants to waste billions of taxpayer dollars in order to further the agenda of the Business Roundtable regarding "reforming" schools, with the same horseshit like "merit pay" and the like.

I can just see "merit pay" working, given the fact so many public school districts are corrupt to begin with. If you really want to reform education, put school districts on a civil service structure. The pay scales are there, but there is no testing required for the jobs. Instead, patronage-style appointments abound with nepotism and favoritism running rampant. This is at the core of corruption.

The school where I last taught before getting the sack in the wrongful termination had a mother with her two daughters teaching--in the same building. Last year her daughters team taught (with a third teacher) second grade. This incestuous employment should be absolutely illegal.
