In reply to the discussion: 'I would have done something': Jordan rebuts claims he knew of abuse [View all]greatlaurel
(2,004 posts)I just wish some good investigative reporters would spend time in Ohio doing research. The corruption from the GOP in Ohio is incredible. Almost all the news outlets are owned by right wing leaning organizations which never report on the GOP scandals unless it hits the national media first.
The selling off of Ohio's public assets like the State of Ohio prison farm lands is a disgrace and true theft. Now the state will have to purchase food from large corporations rather than have Ohio inmates work the farms. The inmates learned skills and the farm jobs were prized by inmates, so it encouraged good behavior. It saved the State of Ohio millions of dollars to grow the food for the prisons. Excess food generated by the prison farms was distributed to food pantries throughout the state. The news media never blinked an eye over this theft of public resources. The big excuse was there are no jobs in agriculture which is, of course, a absolute lie. Agriculture is a top industry in Ohio.
How much money did Jordan accept from Bill Lager, owner of ECOT charter schools? ECOT was finally exposed for the fraud that it was for inflating attendance numbers to the state. ECOT stole millions of dollars from the state and millions of dollars from local school districts who had to fund students from their districts who were supposedly enrolled in ECOT. This should be a nationally reported scandal which is tragically being ignored.
