John Kass: Want to end urban hopelessness? Support real school choice. – Chicago Tribune*

"Because real school choice would break the monopoly of government educrats who wield power by supporting urban public education that serves the politicians, the vendors with clout who sell products and services to schools, and the powerful teachers unions. Who comes in last in big-city public education? The children."

This is one of Kass’s most accurate, well written essays and I would like to see it go national, even international. Very few Chicago citizens, esp. democrats, will read it or give any credence to such concepts, because too many of our compatriots already have minds in quickset concrete. Free the children from totalitarian mind control, do not enroll them in public schools if you are not down with the given political motivations that seek to destroy rather than improve our nation.

Education has become a Madoff level racket! All of the experts have inflated degrees from exit ramp universities and other pretend schools littering the south side. Wonderful new teaching and mentoring techniques that CPS students will happily embrace. Education; where incredibly sloppy scammers thrive! Barbara Byrd Bennett. If it were not for the easy pickings at CPS, she would have become a BLM realtor, like that other mutt.

Uh oh. The CTU troll monsters will certainly be attacking Kass and this article. The CTU vermin will try to crush any and all opposition to avoid doing a days work for a fair wage. Bust CTU now. School Choice for all.
