Well…if it wasn’t bad enough when our gov here in Michigan, Snyder, conspired in secret with the tea partiers in the lame duck session to jam through the right to work for less legislation and many new abortion restrictions, now he is at it again with a secret group that is supposedly working on “eduction reform”. What kind of education “reform” will it be when reps from ALEC, lobbyists from tech companies, and avowed haters of public education are the only ones on this project? Where are the representatives of parents? Where are the representative of professional educators who live in the trenches and know what does and doesn’t work? None of these groups matter to this idiot thug whose only goal in this whole process is to lower the cost of education by the use of technology that has been proven to have no better outcomes than the normal public education. But, this just doesn’t matter to Snyder and his cronies in the legislature…their two goals are to lower cost so he can give more tax breaks to business and to break the unions that the repubs just hate so much….these guys just hate democracy…why else would they have to meet in secret? Just more of the same of the Koch and DeVos fueled ruination of our state…first in the race to be Mississippi….geez….
