One of the reasons we got public education in the first was that the factory owners needed workers who could learn how to operate complex machines and do math. Easier to get the public to pay than teach them on the owner’s dime.
Yeah, but then they moved all the factories to other countries. The public is now just a burden to them for wanting corporations to pay their fair share in taxes.
Once the public have no power and no influence there’s no need to listen to them or consider their needs.
The US still has an enormous manufacturing footprint. Yes, a lot was moved overseas, but hardly all of them.

There are plenty of ‘STEM’ jobs that are being outsourced.

This country is like a Jenga. They are taking more and more from the bottom to try and put more at the top.
We know. It’s been obvious for many years now, in my area at least.
What clued Ms. Gore into it? Somehow I doubt it was just the fact that the pornographic material in school libraries didn’t exist.
Post-Dobbs Texas laws have shown that her former party wants to enslave women to their pregnancies to the point of near-death. Even if not about abortion, I suspect it is one of those “I don’t care at all about something until it affects me” type of stories that changed her mind.
Well John Oliver did a whole episode on this like two years ago. Maybe then.
There were a lot of wierd canidates in our last school board races. they got shown the door.
In my town the school board weirdo lost by 2 votes. It’s so important to vote in local elections.
geez. yeah I don’t get why folks do not prioritize local. Its the elections that effect you the most. heck I don’t even have kids but I don’t want my area filled with a bunch of ignorant youths in 5 years.
Plus, it’s where the future national candidates typically get their first experience in elected office.
If you want better candidates in the future “big” elections, make sure to encourage the good ones and ensure the crap ones don’t get on school boards and other local elected positions.
There were a bunch in my areas last school board elections as well.
Most lost by a large margin, but a couple actually got elected. Both have since been suspended by the boards they are on for violating multiple policies and governance oversight regulations.
Golly gee, and not a single one was named Soros
What they are relying doing is hi jacking boards to be able to extract all that taxpayer cash via contracting.
Propaganda is just the cheery for this psyop.
And push their values to impressionable children while they’re at it.
Meanwhile, far right hardliners are taking over local government and school boards in order to sow dissent in pretty much everything.
No shit
And water isn’t actually wet.
We know.
Wait… There are people that still trust government run institutions to educate their kids?
The public school system must be worse than I thought, or people are just unwilling to accept that public schools exist to turn our children into cannon fodder for corporations.
