With the attacks on Betsy DeVos, Trump's education secretary....we find out that one of the leading attackers, and fake Indians.....elizabeth warren...was for school vouchers before she was against them....this was brought to my attention by Dan Proft on his morning show on the radio here in Chicago...
Elizabeth Warren’s school-voucher hypocrisy | New York Post
In her 2003 book, “The Two-Income Trap” (co-authored with her daughter, Amelia Warren Tyagi), Warren endorsed a school-voucher system to free children from the tyranny of educrats assigning them to schools based on where their parents can afford to live.
Warren wrote: “With fully funded vouchers, parents of all income levels could send their children — and the accompanying financial support — to the schools of their choice.”
Moreover, she argued that framing the issue as a “public versus private competition” misses the key issue: “The problem is not vouchers; the problem is parental choice.”
Warren pointed out that most public-school placement is based on ZIP code. The only way parents can exercise any choice is to buy a home in the school district they want — but poor families lack that option.
The solution, she asserted, is to break up the “ironclad relationship” between ZIP code and school with a well-designed voucher system.
Yet ahead of the confirmation hearings, Warren charged that DeVos’ support for vouchers and privately run schools was disqualifying.
One might say that Sen. Warren’s hypocrisy disqualifies her from sitting in judgment of DeVos.
Boy....these left wing nut jobs must hate the internet...and Free Speech....and freedom in general...
