Remember the rationale we were given for trading with and investing in China? In case you forgot … supposedly, this trade and investment would lead to China becoming less authoritarian and more democratic. How did that work out? Rhetorical question, of course.
China remains as authoritarian as ever and has become much more powerful economically and militarily, while the United States’s position relative to China has eroded. But Wall Street and Big-Tech and the corporatists and the political-grifters, like the Bidens, have made a lot of money off China, so … GO FREE MARKET!
One of the rationales of school choice is that it would force the public schools to compete to keep students … to get better. That has NOT happened either. Instead, public education is a cesspool of race-based and “identity”-based socialism euphemistically called CRT and DEI. The communists … oh I am sorry I mean Democrats … are obsessed with killing Education Freedom Accounts NOT because they fear competition … EFAs will never be large enough to ever really threaten the scope of public education … but because communists need/want TOTAL CONTROL.
The problem with EFAs is that they cause or allow the GOP to ignore what is going on in public schools … the CRT and the DEI. As a result, public schools are generating wave after wave of new voters who will NEVER vote GOP … see twitter-thread below:
