Educating for the Status Quo

[TBF]

2. In all honesty it has nothing to do with education imo -

this is about breaking the unions and profiting off "education". Wall Street is looking to make a buck here, and privatization is the new trend. In my view a very bad trend for working folks and the students involved.

I fully expect that if the unions go the salaries will drop substantially and there will be a movement to replace many teachers with proctors/video-taped lessons etc. The wealthy kids will be fine in private or possibly magnet schools, but everyone else is being prepared for low-paying jobs in service type work or military. It is really sad.
