Much of the routine trade and investment between China and America is entirely appropriate and in America’s interest. But inserting the Chinese Communist Party into America’s pay-to-play system and its economic development strategy isn’t just crossing a line. It’s a leap into an abyss of stupidity.
So no teachers but instead they will hire “guides”. Where will they get those guides? What type of background does one need to be a guide? How much will they pay? Price said she’s hoping to tap into Chicago’s local network of teachers to work as guides with salaries starting at $100,000. Oh, so they are looking to hire teachers with a starting salary of at least a 100k per year but instead of calling them teachers we will call them guides. Brilliant.

This is the future of education and while this program may not be the way it’s eventually done, it is a start.

This could be the camel’s nose under the tent, and I’m all for it.
Don’t agree, but at least AI shows up to teach and doesn’t call off.
