The opportunistic pols and political bosses want public education to function as well as our health care system so politically connected "reformy types" can grab as much public cash as possible. <br /><br />Seriously. <br /><br />When pols start talking about privatizing public services, hang on to your wallet, particularly since Norcross was once the guy Christie was trying to put in jail for corruption, but a few short years ago. <br /><br />These privatization cats are cynical beyond belief. They KNOW that poverty drives the bulk of student academic achievement, so like buzzards, they will privatize the poorest of public school districts in the name of "reform" knowing conditions will deteriorate. And like buzzards, they will literally pick over the still twitching body of NJ urban education, tearing free any money they can find, leaving the NJ taxpayers to deal with the corpse once they're through. <br /><br />And they're so greedy they'll take non-facts (see Arendt) generated by some think-tanker hack (see Baker) to try to take this scheme state-wide in just a few short years. <br /><br />Just you watch.calugghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08181162384964123706noreply@blogger.com
